Gibson SG Guitars

Gibson SG Guitars are synonymous with all things rock n roll, and have been for over five decades. The likes of Angus Young, Pete Townshend and Ian MacKaye of Minor Threat have ensured that the SG has become a truly iconic guitar.

With a rich, deep sound that partners tonal clarity with superb sustain, the SG is often compared to a Les Paul, but with added bite. Slim line design means that the SG weighs significantly less than the Les Paul, as well as many other guitars.

The SG Special and SG Standard are the two most widely recognised incarnations of this revered instrument. While both feature the same mahogany tone wood and superb USA construction, there are some important differences between them.
