Why are there two Gibson Collections?

Gibson have divided the range into two separate collections to make it easier for players to find the type of instrument they prefer.

Why is the Gibson SG Standard in the Modern Collection instead of the Original Collection?

Gibson put the SG Standard in the Modern Collection since it is not based on a particular vintage year or decade. It is an SG for today, hence its position in the Modern Collection. The Gibson SG Modern, also in the Modern Collection, is a completely different guitar.

What is a Dirty Fingers pickup?

Dirty Fingers are a type of humbucker made by Gibson. They were originally introduced in the 70s in order to compete with the new third party replacement pickups on the market. These had significantly more output than Gibson's own. The Dirty Fingers pickups have ceramic magnets and are particularly high in output. Dirty Fingers pickups are particularly suited to Punk, Hard Rock and Metal styles. Certain guitar models within the Gibson Modern Collection, like the B-2 Explorer for example, use Dirty Fingers pickups.
