Gibson SG Standard '61 Stop Bar - TV Yellow

Step into the limelight with the Gibson SG Standard '61 Stop Bar – a classic beauty with a fresh twist! Dressed in captivating custom colors and coated with Gibson's signature gloss nitro layer, this guitar shines brighter than a disco ball at a rock concert. But wait, there's more! Get ready to groove to the groovy '60s vibes with Gibson's Burstbuckers, packing alnico 5 magnets and enough power to make your riffs sing like a choir of angels.

This guitar is not just a relic of the past; it's a living legend, loved and rocked by generations. Sporting all the iconic features like the SlimTaper neck carve and luxurious rosewood fretboard with creamy binding, it's a blast from the past with a modern twist. Plus, with medium jumbo frets and classic acrylic trapezoid inlays, you'll be shredding in style. And let's not forget the cherry on top – Standard goodies like the tear drop pickguard, TOM bridge with stop bar, and Keystone tuners. It's like having a time machine to the swinging sixties, but with way better sound quality!

Designed with the performer in mind, this guitar boasts a contoured body and deep cutaways, ensuring a comfortable fit during those epic stage performances. Engineered for both style and security, it exudes a considered and stylish vibe. The real rosewood fingerboard adds to the allure, providing a smooth surface for effortless chord changes and imparting warmth to your tone. With the unique slim taper profile, you'll find your hand naturally conforming to the neck's shape, reducing the need for excessive pressure and minimizing on-stage cramping. Say goodbye to discomfort and hello to uninterrupted focus on your music.

The 61 Burstbucker humbuckers are more than mere pickups—they're the backbone of the iconic SG sound, delivering ample power and clarity to every note. By eliminating unwanted interference, these humbuckers ensure that your performance remains pristine and your licks cut through with precision.

And then there's the aluminium Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge, a crucial component for achieving the legendary sustain that defines the Gibson SG. By efficiently transferring string vibrations throughout the mahogany body, this bridge ensures your notes ring out with the enduring resonance worthy of a rock god—think Frank Zappa-length sustain.

Since its debut in 1961, the Gibson SG has carved out a legendary reputation as the guitar of choice for the bold and rebellious. Its hefty build and thunderous tone quickly made it synonymous with rock 'n' roll defiance, immortalized by iconic moments like Pete Townsend's guitar-smashing theatrics. With its SlimTaper profile and silky smooth fingerboard, it's no wonder the SG has been dubbed the "fastest neck in the world," cementing its status as the ultimate instrument for unleashing untamed rock energy.
