Description
What makes this guitar special: To pay homage to the original image of the 1961 SG Standard, Gibson introduces the SG ’61 Reissue Satin, a guitar that packs all the most desirable features of vintage SGs, with a great “satin” finish that gives it the look and feel of a well-aged classic, in Worn Cherry finish & hand-sprayed nitrocellulose lacquer. A muscular sounding guitar with an outstanding natural acoustic resonance & fitted with a pair of dynamite sounding '57 Classics. Professionally set up with fresh strings & low action, so it plays & sounds fantastic!
