Gibson SG 61 Standard Maestro VC

Came out in the morning with a guitar, clean air, light breeze ...
put a tube amplifier next to it, pressed the BOSS OD-3 pedal, played G, D, C
Squirrels came, brought nuts ... oh,
Wonderful sound, wonderful color, wonderful Gibson
Thanks dear Thomann!!!

I'm sure Gibson would be the first to admit that they have had problems in the past. But they are back on form making probably the best guitars in the world. This SG (a les Paul in reality being a 61, with the wrong trem system) is a great example. I own both vintage and custom shop Gibsons and this holds its own. Flawless workmanship and an absolute please to play. The trem is, of course, basically useless, only suitable for very light use, but it makes the guitar cosmetically stunning, and eliminates the age old SG neck dive problem.

Always wanted this guitar after seeing George Harrison with one many years ago. Didn't disappoint, still settling in, but beautiful tone, gorgeous action, and a stunner of a guitar.

High level performance! This is the cheapest guitar in my arsenal, but it's great! The only thing I did was change the bridge to TONEPROS AVR/2N (lock)

Aside from a little tarnishing on the pickups everything else was perfect on receiving this SG. Set up perfectly from the start this balances pretty well without any neck dive and stays in tune with light use of the Meastro Tremelo. Didn't try with anything too wild as that's not my thing. Soundwise the pickups are nice and clear with no harshness. So far looking like this could become a very useful little workhorse. Well worth the money.
