Product Description
Gibson SG Standard Electric Guitar – Heritage Cherry
The Gibson SG Standard Electric Guitar – Heritage Cherry rocks the classic looks and features associated with the late 60’s style SG models sought after by many. A rounded profile mahogany neck, bound rosewood fingerboard, long tenon 19th fret neck joint, and a solid mahogany body provide the backbone for singing sustain. The 490R and 490T Alnico II pickups provide the power to drive. A black, 5-ply, full-face pickguard set this SG Standard apart from others… a truly versatile classic.
The Gibson SG Standard is a lean, mean rock machine
Whether you’re chording down low or soloing up high, the distinctive rounded neck carve always feels just right. The Gibson SG Standard‘s iconic double-horned cutaway gives you free access to the high registers, while its Plek’d fretboard ensures effortless playability. The Gibson SG Standard is a lean, mean rock machine.
Matched humbucker set delivers real-deal PAF tone
Gibson voiced the pickups on the SG Standard for tonal characteristics similar to classic late-period PAF humbuckers, but with a slight increase in the upper mids for a more contemporary sound. The 490 matched pickup set really shines when pumping out the classic fat, snarling tone that is the SG’s stock-in-trade. These pups are delightfully responsive, though — simply roll back the volume, and they clean up beautifully. We love the Gibson SG Standard’s pickup combo, and so will you. Whether you’re delivering your musical message with mellow jazz tones, bone-rattling crunch, or a blistering liquid inferno, the Gibson SG Standard rewards your touch with world-class responsiveness. The pole pieces of the 490R and 490T (Rhythm and Treble) pickups are aligned to match the string spacing at the neck and bridge, respectively.
Nitro finish for the look and feel of a classic
The Gibson SG Standard wears a gorgeous nitrocellulose lacquer finish. Nitro finishes — standard back in the day — are significantly thinner than today’s polyurethane finishes, allowing the guitar to “breathe.” Nitro finishes not only look vintage-y wonderful, but they also enhance the instrument’s tonal qualities. The Gibson SG Standard has the look (and feel) of a lovingly cared-for classic — one that will only improve with age.
