Overview

The flagship SG, with classic looks and sound with exclusive gold hardware.

The flagship of the SG range, this SG Standard 2017 comes in an exclusive gold hardware and represents a superb blend of historic looks, tone, contemporary versatility and playability. Its iconic asymmetrical double-horned body styling and smaller "teardrop" pickguard harken back to the originals of the early ’60s, and the Classic ’57 humbuckers likewise take you straight back to those hallowed PAF tones.

When uncompromising performance matters, locking Grover kidney-button tuners, a SlimTaper neck and rosewood fingerboard with rolled binding, Gibson's finest modern aluminum tune-o-matic bridge and stop bar tailpiece with elegant chrome plating provide a stylish and modern SG playing experience. The SG Standard 2017 is delivered in a classic Gibson hardshell case with a Gibson multi-tool, a premium leather strap and a polishing cloth.
