Description
The SG Standard '61 returns to the classic design that made it relevant, played & loved, shaping sound across generations & genres of music. In 1961, the Les Paul model was put on hiatus & an all-new design evolved into what is today known as the SG or "solid guitar." The Gibson SG Standard '61 retains the styling of the original featuring a SlimTaper mahogany neck & a bound rosewood fingerboard. The mahogany body features deeply sculpted body scarfing, a 5-ply teardrop pickguard & a 22nd-fret neck joint. The nickel-plated hardware includes a classic-style Tune-O-Matic bridge & Keystone tuners. The pickups are 60s Burstbucker humbuckers for a classic voice with added power & top end. Controls feature audio taper potentiometers & Orange Drop capacitors. Set up ready to play straight out of the case.
