The Gibson 1961 SG STANDARD REISSUE 6-String Electric Guitar, Heritage Cherry Finish, Nickel Hardware inc case. A classic since the '60s with clean, vintage '57 Classic Humbucker tone, fast, easy playability and plenty of sustain.
The Gibson 1961 SG Standard Reissue electric guitar features the small pickguard and nickel-plated hardware of the original '61. In 1961, the traditional Les Paul Standard received a makeover that included a thinner body with sharply pointed horns and eventually a new name - the SG. The Gibson 1961 SG Standard Reissue features an original-style sculpted double-cutaway mahogany body, fast, sleek, 1960 slim-taper mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard with Trapezoid inlays, Tune-o-matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece, Green Key tuners and exclusive Gibson '57 Classic humbucking pickups at the neck and bridge that deliver clean, vintage warm tone with two volume, two tone, three-way switch controls. A highly versatile guitar with the sweet tone, particularly suited to rock and blues. The neck meets with the body at the 22nd fret, making the high notes very playable. Gibson Hardshell case included with this guitar.
