Epiphone SG Standard '61 Maestro Vibrola in Vintage Cherry, USED
The Epiphone SG Standard '61 Maestro Vibrola in Vintage Cherry is a faithful tribute to the early 1960s SGs, capturing the spirit and sound of a legendary era in rock history. Finished in a classic Vintage Cherry, this guitar embodies the iconic look that made the SG a favorite among guitarists worldwide. Its slim, contoured mahogany body offers light weight and exceptional comfort, while also contributing to its rich, resonant sound, ideal for everything from rock to blues and beyond.
The neck is crafted from mahogany as well, featuring a '60s SlimTaper profile that makes it fast and easy to play. The Indian laurel fingerboard has 22 medium-jumbo frets and trapezoid inlays, delivering that classic Gibson-like feel under the fingers while ensuring smooth playability across the entire neck. This makes it a great choice for intricate solos or heavy rhythm work, allowing for quick transitions and effortless control.
The SG Standard '61 is equipped with Epiphone's Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers, which deliver a full, dynamic tone reminiscent of vintage PAF pickups. The bridge pickup provides biting clarity and punch, ideal for cutting through the mix in overdriven settings, while the neck pickup offers a warmer, rounder tone perfect for bluesy leads and rich chord voicings. With a three-way selector switch and individual volume and tone controls for each pickup, this guitar provides a versatile palette of sounds that are perfect for a wide range of genres, from classic rock and blues to modern hard rock.
One of the standout features of this SG is the Maestro Vibrola tailpiece, which not only adds visual appeal but also allows for subtle pitch modulation, ideal for adding expressive vibrato to your playing. The hardware is finished in nickel, complementing the Vintage Cherry finish and adding to the overall retro aesthetic. The Epiphone SG Standard '61 Maestro Vibrola is perfect for players looking to capture the authentic look, feel, and sound of a classic SG without breaking the bank, offering high-quality craftsmanship and vintage flair in an accessible package.
