Straight from our friends at Gibson, we've got this Gibson Limited Edition SG Standard in a sleek ebony finish. This model, a limited release SG with a couple of unique appointments you won't find many other places, stakes its claim as a modern model with loads of retro-minded specifications. Back in black? Just about.

As part of a limited run straight from Gibson USA, this SG Standard assembles with a smorgasbord of classy Gibson specs to really rise above your usual SGs. This all kicks off with a mahogany solidbody assuming the iconic devil-horned SG shape. The body, wrapped in a gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish, exhibits a deep sheen and slickness to stare endlessly into. As is SG tradition, the mahogany solidbody reaches out with a mahogany neck. This particular American-made SG follows pretty closely in your traditional SG footsteps with a Gibson SlimTaper neck profile that speeds up playing considerably. Alongside this SlimTaper neck is a rosewood fingerboard lined with twenty-two Medium Jumbo frets and acrylic trapezoid inlays. Enabling fluid fretting at every position, this board is a dream.

For its voice, this limited American-made SG loads in two Gibson T-Type humbucking pickups. Summoning that all-important humbucking warmth and bite, these pickups break the mold as they are shaped through controls featuring hand-wired Orange Drop capacitors. It's here that we start seeing a number of this guitar's closer appointments with, first, a reliable GraphTech nut and Gibson Vintage Deluxe tuning machines toward the headstock. These two pieces are coupled with le pièce de résistance of this guitar – its Maestro Vibrola tailpiece. This bold, gold vibrato tailpiece matches up with a sturdy ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge that assists in ensuring accuracy in intonation even when deep vibrato bends drop in. Additionally, Gibson black witch hat knobs with gold inserts appear for that added visual flourish.

This limited Gibson USA SG Standard travels with an included Gibson hardshell case and accessory kit.

As a truly timeless testament to Gibson's artistic eye, this limited SG has it all and then some.
