1964 Gibson SG Junior Vintage Electric Guitar, (Used)
The 1964 Gibson SG Junior is a classic solid‑body electric guitar from Gibson’s early SG era, introduced shortly after the original Les Paul model transitioned into what became the SG shape. It features a mahogany body and neck with a thin, lightweight profile and the distinctive double‑cutaway silhouette that gives easy access to the upper frets. The rosewood fingerboard carries 22 frets on a 24.75‑inch scale, offering a comfortable feel and familiar Gibson spacing.
Electronics on this model are famously simple and direct: a single P‑90 single‑coil pickup in the bridge position, paired with one Volume knob and one Tone knob. This layout delivers the SG Junior’s signature raw, punchy tone with plenty of midrange bite, making it especially responsive and expressive for rock, blues, and gritty rhythm work.
Hardware includes a wrap‑around bridge/tailpiece that contributes to sustain and straightforward intonation, and vintage‑style tuning machines that complete the classic early‑1960s Gibson look. The 1964 SG Junior remains an iconic player’s guitar prized for its simplicity, punchy voice, and direct connection between player and instrument.
