Iconic guitar from the Gibson stable, a 2005 ibson SG, body and neck crafted from mahogany, usual double-cutaway style with bevelled edges. Great playing guitar, great resonance and sustain. Dark rosewood fingerboard with traditional hum bucking pickups, a set of 498 and 500 pickups and fixed stoptail. Guitar is finished in nitrocellulose, oozing that vintage feel.
Pickups are quite powerful and give a great tone when played over my Hughes & Kettner . Tone and volume have the classic configuration of an independent volume and tone control for each pickup and a standard three-way toggle switch. Tune-o-matic bridge and vintage-style tuners with pearloid buttons. Cream binding, black top hat with silver volume and tone inserts, an ’60s five-ply black plastic pickguard, and traditional “bell” truss rod cover.
