Few guitars have shaped the sound of rock and roll quite like the Gibson SG. Introduced in 1961 as a bold evolution of the Les Paul model, the SG (short for “Solid Guitar”) quickly carved out its own identity, thanks to its aggressive look, fast-playing feel, and searing tone. The SG Standard '61 pays tribute to those early models with vintage-inspired details, while adding modern refinements for today’s players. This version, dressed in a striking TV Yellow finish, captures the rebellious spirit of the '60s with a fresh aesthetic twist.

The SG's iconic double-cutaway mahogany body and deeply contoured edges make it one of the most comfortable guitars for live performance, especially for lead players who take full advantage of upper-fret access. Whether you're into classic rock, punk, blues, or modern metal, the combination of a SlimTaper neck and a pair of Burstbucker pickups delivers a tonal palette that's both dynamic and full of character — from cutting cleans and crunchy rhythms to biting leads that sing with sustain. It's a guitar that invites expression without limits.

With its timeless design, fast neck, and versatile electronics, the SG Standard '61 in TV Yellow is built to be a stage and studio workhorse. It’s a celebration of Gibson’s legacy in a form that’s ready to make history all over again — and it’s available right now at Haggerty’s Music.
