Kept in the legendary design with the two distinctive horns, the Gibson SG Standard Heritage Cherry Lefthand proves to be a first-class blues and rock guitar for left-handers with smooth handling and first-class sound. While the proven set-neck construction with neck and body made of mahogany creates the basis for a powerful sound, the not-too-strong "rounded" neck profile promises comfortable playability of all positions of the rosewood fingerboard. With a Set of the popular Gibson 490 humbucker, the SG Standard delivers powerful sounds with a wide midrange spectrum and the ideal dose of bite at the guitar amplifier, whose preferred metier is Blues and rock. Last but not least, the Gibson SG Standard is equipped with Grover Rotomatic tuners and the classic pair of Tune-O-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece.
The construction of the SG Standard left-handed guitar naturally follows the classic specifications and promises the ideal combination of powerful sound and easy handling. The practical mahogany body not only lies comfortably against the body but also guarantees unhindered access to the high registers of the glued mahogany neck through the characteristic double Cutaways. In addition, a pleasantly grippy but not too powerful "Rounded" neck profile with 43 mm nut width lies comfortably in the hand, so that the classic playing techniques of the Blues and Rock can be implemented with ease.
With a Gibson 490R humbucker in neck position and a Gibson 490T humbucker at the bridge, two modern classics of the Gibson pickup line-up take over the electric sound transformation of the SG Standard Lefthand electric guitar. A slightly modernized PAF interpretation, the classic Alnico II pickups deliver a warm sound with a full midrange spectrum and lively dynamics, suitable for both soulful clean passages and punchy overdrive riffs. The raised Output of the bridge pickup also helps to elicit a juicy Distortion from the guitar amp. And to be able to adjust the sound of the electric guitar, in addition to the 3-way pickup switch, there are separate volume and tone controls for the humbuckers.
Last but not least Gibson equips the SG Standard Heritage Cherry Lefthand electric guitar with tradition-conscious and reliable attachments. On the body, an aluminum stop bar holds the strings securely and guides them to the classic Nashville aluminum Tune-O-Matic bridge, whose generous adjustment options guarantee exact intonation and comfortably playable string action. Behind the Graph Tech nut, Grover Rotomatic tuners also ensure precise tuning with unshakable stability.
