Solidbody Electric Guitar with Mahogany Body and Neck, Rosewood Fretboard, 2 Humbucking Pickups, and Sideways Vibrola Tailpiece - Vintage Cherry

Immortalized by Santana at Woodstock and smashed onstage by Townshend, the Gibson SG is a rock icon. Gibson’s Nashville-made 2019 SG Standard ’61 takes you back to the first model year of the legendary solidbody electric guitar — small pickguard, vintage cherry finish, and all. The SG Standard ’61 is spec’d with a pair of toneful humbuckers; a fast, comfortable SlimTaper neck; and a bound, Plek’d rosewood fretboard with action that’s almost nonexistent. The SG’s lightweight mahogany body delivers great sustain and no pain, even if you play all night. And the worn nitro finish looks and feels great while enhancing the tone of this legendary rock machine. Own your piece of rock history: the Gibson SG Standard ’61.

Burstbucker pickups deliver timeless humbucker tone

When it comes to capturing that classic Gibson tone, nothing beats the sound of 60s Burstbucker pickups. You’ll love the tight low end, complex midrange, and sweet highs you’ll get out of these pickups — it’s everything you expect when you pick up a Gibson! That’s because 60s Burstbucker pickups were designed to re-create the sound of original 1960s-era humbuckers to perfection. So if you want the iconic tone of a classic Gibson SG, the SG Standard ’61 is the guitar for you.

SlimTaper neck carve and Plek’d frets for optimized playability

Comfort and playability were two of Gibson’s primary concerns when they were designing the 2019 SG Standard ’61. You’ll be delighted by how comfortably this guitar’s fast, early-’60s SlimTaper neck profile fits your hand. For your playing pleasure, the rosewood fingerboard is buffed to silky smoothness and bound so that no fret ends impede your dexterity. The frets are dressed to perfection using a Plek Pro machine for optimized playability. Typically reserved for top-dollar custom guitars, this process levels the frets with pinpoint precision, providing you with the most playable fretboard you’re likely to own.

Nitro finish for the look and feel of a classic

The SG Standard ’61 2019 wears a gorgeous gloss 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. This guitar has the look (and feel) of a lovingly cared-for classic — one that will only improve with age.

Absolute stunner, superb quality and best tones.

Coming to Sadek Music at Dubai Mall was such a nice experience.

I picked this SG Standard 61 vibrola, it is one hell of a guitar. Killer tone excellent playablity smoothest & fastest neck and an extreme stunner. This SG caught my eye on the website and was lucky that it was available with Sadek Music. No issue with quality controls everything on the Guitar was perfect all I did was change the strings as I like .09s. To add the Hardshell case and strap that came with it are of top quality.

Gibson without any doubt makes the best guitars and you'll know when you buy one. Gibson will get back to the top of the world soon where it belongs as it makes the Guitars which sets the trends and the standards, and then everyone copies. On top of it all the Guitars they make look absolutely beautiful.

Must say that people at Sadek Music Dubai Mall were friendly, helpful and vibrant they made the experience worthwhile. So I picked another Gibson which was Les Paul Classic. Hope to visit Dubai soon to buy another Guitar from Sadek Music.
