This pre loved 2005 Gibson SG Standard is in great condition. It has a few dings and chips, including one on the back of the headstock and has some buckle rash on the back. Includes a Gibson hard case.
The 2005 Gibson SG Standard is a classic American-made example of Gibson's iconic SG design, combining the familiar lightweight double-cutaway body with powerful humbucker tones and excellent upper-fret access. Finished in the traditional Cherry, it has the instantly recognisable appearance associated with the SG Standard.
The mahogany body and set mahogany neck provide a warm, resonant character with plenty of sustain, while the slim, double-cutaway design makes the guitar particularly comfortable to play across the full length of the fingerboard. The bound rosewood fingerboard features traditional trapezoid inlays, adding to the classic Gibson appearance.
This model is equipped with a pair of Gibson humbuckers, delivering the versatile combination of warm cleans, crunchy classic-rock tones and powerful overdrive that has made the SG a long-standing favourite for rock and blues players. Individual volume and tone controls for each pickup, together with the three-way pickup selector, provide plenty of tonal flexibility.
The 2005 example also represents an interesting period of Gibson production, making it an appealing choice for players looking for a genuine USA-made Gibson with plenty of vintage character while retaining the playability and versatility of the SG Standard specification.
Finished in Cherry with its distinctive pointed double-cutaway body, horned silhouette and classic Gibson appointments, this is a highly recognisable example of one of Gibson's most enduring electric guitar designs.
