Gibson USA SG Standard - Heritage Cherry

$1,799.00 $1,529.25 Sale

The Interstellar Tone Traveler has flown many vessels — but few feel as alive in the hands as the Gibson USA SG Standard in Heritage Cherry. Lightweight, resonant, and fiercely expressive, this is Gibson's most iconic double-cut design reborn for a new generation of tone explorers who demand power, playability, and that unmistakable Gibson growl in one sleek, stage-ready package. Heritage Cherry is the SG's native color — deep, glowing, and burning with the same rebellious energy that has fueled everything from Sabbath to Soundgarden and every sonic galaxy in between. The SG Standard isn't a vintage reissue chasing historical accuracy — it's a modern player's spacecraft built to handle anything you throw at it, with a Rounded mahogany neck profile and long tenon set neck flowing into a cream-bound rosewood fretboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets and acrylic trapezoid inlays that feel fast, comfortable, and ready for warp-speed riffing from the first note.

A 490R in the neck and a 490T in the bridge deliver a hotter, more modern voice than the vintage-wound '61 models — bold, punchy, and built to push an amp hard — with chrome hardware and an Aluminum Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge giving the Standard its own distinct character and dependable modern reliability. The iconic double-cutaway mahogany body grants unrestricted access to every fret on the neck, while the glued-in long tenon construction delivers the sustain and resonance that only Gibson's time-tested architecture can provide. At just 6 lbs 11 oz it wears like a feather across any set length or studio session. Whether you're a stage veteran who knows exactly what you want or a tone explorer still charting new territory, this guitar meets you exactly where you are — and then takes you somewhere further.
