OVERVIEW

A rock icon in its original incarnation with automated tuners.

The 2013 SG Standard embodies all the tone, feel, and look of the original rendition of this legendary guitar, with features such as a slim ™60s profile neck with a smaller early ™60s headstock, the original early ™60s pickguard, dual ™57 Classic humbucking pickups, and Gibson' innovative hardware, all wrapped into a design that remains one of the most versatile guitars available today. To top it off, the SG Standard displays classic looks in a choice of colors, all in high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer. This model comes with automated Min-ETune œrobot tuners.

Like the greatest SGs ever made, the SG Standard starts with a foundation of solid mahogany, a tonewood with a long tradition at Gibson. A solid mahogany body (Grade-A beneath the translucent finish options) is crafted in the distinctive, thin asymmetrical dual-cutaway style, with iconic pointed œhorns and beveled edges to enhance playing comfort.

A solid, Grade-A, quarter-sawn mahogany neck is glued into the body in Gibson' time-tested tradition, and carved to a fast, slim ™60s profile that measures .800 at the 1st fret and .875 at the 12th. It is topped with a bound fingerboard made from genuine Grade-A rosewood with 22 medium-jumbo frets, and traditional trapezoid inlays. The smaller vintage-style headstock has the classic mother-of-pearl Gibson logo and holly inlays.

The SG Standard takes its firepower from a pair of ™57 Classic humbucking pickups, some of the most popular recreations of vintage PAF humbuckers available today. These great pickups use genuine Alnico II bar magnets and are wound with 42-AWG enamel-coated wire for the characteristic blend of warmth and creaminess that made original PAFs legendary. The traditional wiring complement of an independent volume and tone control per pickup plus a three-way toggle selector switch allows a broad range of sonic variations.

To anchor it all down, Gibson USA loads in a tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece, with a set of genuine TonePros vintage-style tuners, a hardware set that partners up for solid sustain and precision tuning. Put it all together, and the SG Standard presents a great incarnation of the iconic original, bringing the look, feel, and sound to the hands of players of today.

Each guitar comes with case, owner' manual and truss rod wrench.
