Gisbon SG Standard '61 - Pelham Blue Burst
Gisbon SG Standard '61 - Pelham Blue Burst
Immortalized by Santana at Woodstock and smashed onstage by Pete Townshend, the SG is a veritable rock icon. Now, it’s available in vintage-inspired finishes as part of the Gibson Custom Color Series. The Nashville-made SG Standard ’61 reissue takes you back to the SG’s debut with a classic lightweight mahogany body and a set mahogany neck that delivers great sustain and no pain. Two hum-canceling Gibson ’60s Burstbucker pickups facilitate spine-tingling vintage tones just like legendary PAF pickups. Plus, the rosewood fingerboard, silky 24.75-inch scale length, and precision-leveled frets were dressed leveraging advanced Plek technology for a low-action feel that inspires. The SG’s mischievous look is undoubtedly part of its lore, and the SG Standard ’61 offers only the finest looks. Gibson die-hards have noted the authenticity of the SG Standard ’61’s old-school nitro gloss finish, smaller period-correct teardrop pickguard, and tasteful fingerboard binding. With the Gibson SG Standard ’61, you can revisit the past or engineer the next great rock ’n’ roll revolution — the choice is yours!
