A guitar that inspired many greats.
The Gibson SG Standard boasts classic looks and a full set of features associated with the desirable late-'60s-style SG models. With a rounded-profile mahogany neck; bound, 22-fret rosewood fingerboard; stable, long-tenon, 19th-fret neck joint and a solid mahogany body, it delivers that iconic rock tone with singing sustain. The 490R and 490T Alnico II pickups provide the power to drive your amp to new heights, and a black, 5-ply, full-face pickguard puts this versatile classic in a category all its own.
The Gibson SG Standard comes with a soft shell case.
