Gibson SG Standard Ebony Left Handed

What we say:

At A Glance:

The Gibson SG Standard Ebony Left Handed proves why it is still one of the most iconic guitars around.

The SG is generally sought out by players who enjoy the thick signature Gibson sound but find the likes of a Les Paul too heavy or lacking upper fret access. The thinner mahogany body and double cutaway design of this model encourages long, creative sessions of playing.

As with the rest of this range, Gibson have gone for a more traditional look, sound, and spec for the SG. The SG's famous tone is all here; less overtly thick than a Les Paul, grouped with plenty of sustain. The perfect instrument for Classic Rock crunch, Heavy Metal riffs, and ripping solos, the SG can also deliver in Indie, Funk, Blues, and Pop.

Features We Love:

490R/T Pickups

Sounding pretty hot, the 490R and 490T pickups are often found on Les Paul Customs. They sound large, powerful and full of energy!

Rounded Neck Profile

The 'Rounded' neck profile from Gibson is some what larger than their others, such as the 'Slim Taper'. This means that this neck will feel great in your hands while playing, especially over extended periods of rocking! Offering great access all across the fretboard, if you prefer a good chunk of timber to hold on to, this could be the one for you!

Classic Looks and Feel

Gibson have kept things classic with the SG Standard. The original recipe is sometimes best and with this SG you get just that. A classic feeling mahogany neck set in to a mahogany body and loaded with some powerful humbuckers. All ready for you to turn it up to 10!

Highlights:

• 490R/T pickups offer hot, powerful tones
• Rounded neck profile feels great!
• Classic looks and feel
