Starting with all the power and punch that has made the Gibson SG one of the most popular guitars of all time, the SG Select adds the beauty of flamed maple. With a body carefully carved from solid, bookmatched AAA flamed maple, and a three-piece maple neck, the SG Select highlights the wood's natural elegance, as well as its incredibly resonant, singing tone. Not only is the SG Select Gibson's most exquisite SG, it also has incredible projection and detailed clarity. Powerful 490R and 498T humbuckers and gold hardware continue the theme of beauty and brawn, allowing the SG Select to set a new standard for singing sustain and handcrafted allure.Manufactured in Nashville, TN.
