Gibson SG Standard ’61 2019 – Vintage Cherry Gibson

The 2019 SG Standard 61 guitar captures the essence of the groundbreaking SG of 1961 with the sonic characteristics that made this model a legend. With white fingerboard binding on a solid rosewood fingerboard and traditional trapezoid inlays on the SlimTaper profile neck, it’s as comfortable to play as it is easy to look at. The powerful, expressive tone is driven by a pair of Gibson’s 61 humbuckers that are faithful recreations of the popular late-era PAF pickups. Includes hardshell case.
