Overview

Short scale, full tone and legendary looks.

The 2018 Gibson SG Bass is born from the timeless tonewood combination of a mahogany body and neck with a rosewood fingerboard, ensuring this new, modern update is steeped in tradition. The short scale delivers effortless playing while incredible tones are the result of a full contact bridge and classic Gibson SG Bass pickups. Includes hardshell case.
