Core Specifications & Features
- Body & Neck: Solid walnut. Unlike later Deluxe versions which used mahogany, early "The SG" models featured solid walnut bodies and a 3-piece laminated walnut neck.
- Fretboard: Ebony fretboard with mother-of-pearl dot inlays and 24 frets.
- Hardware: Often equipped with Grover "milk bottle" or Rotomatic tuners and standard Tune-O-Matic bridges.
- Neck Profile: Starts slim near the 1st fret (around 0.80") and gets considerably beefier and rounder as you reach the 12th fret.
Vintage Market Insights & ToneKnown colloquially as part of the "Firebrand" series, Gibson marketed this guitar as an affordable but high-quality alternative to higher-tier SGs. Despite being initially positioned as a budget model, all-walnut configurations are highly praised today for their sonic bite and durability.
