The 2014 Gibson SGJ 120th Anniversary Special in Chocolate Satin is a no-nonsense, tone-rich workhorse that offers classic Gibson craftsmanship at an accessible price point. Designed to celebrate Gibson’s 120th anniversary, this model combines vintage-inspired features with modern playability, making it a compelling choice for players seeking authentic SG tone without the premium price tag.
The SGJ boasts a solid mahogany body with the iconic double-cutaway design, ensuring excellent upper-fret access. Its maple neck, carved into a comfortable '50s rounded profile, provides a sturdy and resonant playing experience. The rosewood fingerboard features 24 cryogenically treated frets for enhanced durability and smooth playability, along with dot inlays and a special 120th Anniversary banner at the 12th fret.
Equipped with a pair of uncovered '61 Zebra humbuckers featuring Alnico V magnets, the SGJ delivers a versatile tonal palette—from warm, articulate cleans to aggressive, biting overdrive. The traditional control layout includes two volume and two tone knobs, along with a three-way toggle switch, allowing for straightforward tonal adjustments.
The Chocolate Satin finish, applied using a thin nitrocellulose lacquer, not only showcases the natural grain of the mahogany but also contributes to the guitar's resonance and vintage aesthetic. Additional features include a Tune-O-Matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece, vintage-style tuners, and black Max Grip speed knobs for precise control.
Whether you're a seasoned player or a newcomer seeking a genuine Gibson experience, the 2014 SGJ 120th Anniversary Special offers exceptional value and performance.
