Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.

The Gibson SG Standard ’61 Reissue in Vintage Cherry is a faithful return to one of Gibson’s most celebrated electric guitar designs—lean, lively, and unmistakably iconic. Built with a solid mahogany body and slim taper neck, it offers the fast, effortless feel that made early ’60s SGs legendary. A pair of Gibson ’60s Burstbucker humbuckers deliver articulate bite, singing sustain, and vintage warmth, perfectly complemented by the classic ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece. Finished in beautiful gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, this reissue captures the soul of the original and stands as a timeless instrument and a wise investment for players and collectors alike!
