A double-cutaway legend”updated for the 21st century.
Like the best SGs of the past, the SG Diablo Tremolo starts with a solid mahogany body and glued-in, quarter-sawn mahogany neck, a pairing that ensures ringing sustain, superb tonal depth, and plenty of clarity and richness. The bodys thin dimensions make this a pleasurably light guitar to play, while its classically beveled edges also make it comfortable on the forearm. To update the format for the 21st century, however, Gibson USA gives the SG Diablo Tremolo a fingerboard crafted from North American rosewood with 24 frets for a full two octaves on every string, yielding new creative territory in the SG format. The necks slim profile measures .818 at the 1st fret and .963 at the 12th, making it superbly fast and comfortable. Cream fingerboard binding not only lends a classic look, but keeps the ride smooth for the entire journey, while the guitar comes without a pickguard to get in the way of the menace of its gloss-black finish.
Two of Gibsons popular PAF-style humbucking pickups”a 490R at the neck and 498T at the bridge, made with Alnico II and Alnico V magnets, respectively”translate the SG Diablo Tremolos sonic goodness to your amp of choice, yielding anything from deep, warm tones in the neck position to endless growl and roar in the bridge, to round and snappy tones in between. To kick this guitars unbridled versatility into overdrive, of course, theres the Floyd Rose vibrato unit that helps to give the SG Diablo Tremolo its name. The most highly acclaimed high-performance trem available to the modern rocker, this Floyd excels at everything from dramatic divebombs to subtle evocative warbles, and stays in tune astoundingly well, thanks in no small part to its locking nut. A set of high-quality Grover tuners grace the headstock, while a simple control array of single master volume, single master tone, and three-way toggle switch leave nothing to get in the way of your fast and furious licks.
