2011 Gibson SG Standard Limited White

2011 Gibson SG Standard Limited White Extremely rare white color, people chase after it, but it is very difficult to find!! Sound: 10. A benchmark, one of the standards of Hard Rock. I must clarify here that by benchmark I mean the successful examples of the Standard model. As experienced guitarists know, unfortunately it is practically impossible to find 2 SG guitars that sound exactly the same. In a direct comparison this is noticeable, but the character of the Gibson SG Standard sound remains the character of the Gibson SG Standard regardless of the year of manufacture. An SG obviously does not turn into an LP or an Explorer after 30 years. Build/manufacture quality: 10. Made in USA. Very high quality. I have not encountered any crooked Standards. Appearance/design: 8. Comfortable, elegant, magnificent neck and access to the notorious upper frets, light thin body, the guitar is light as a feather. Features and functionality: 8. Of course, you can play anything you want, drop tune, raise the tuning, crush metal and strum funk, however, we understand that the SG is a rock machine, it proudly carries its devil horns, which unequivocally hints at its purpose. Value for money (total rating): 10. An excellent American guitar, an icon in the pantheon of rock glory. Specs: Body — mahogany, neck — mahogany 24.75″, fixed bridge, Gibson pickups with covers. User opinion Your first thought when mentioning Gibson SG? Angus Young! AC/DC!!! It is time to get a kick out of Back In Black with this guy. After that, other characters come to mind, ranging from Clapton to Cavalera. It seems to me that the fame of the SG somewhat weighs on those who choose or do not choose (again, due to long-established stereotypes) this guitar. The first thing that comes to mind when you play a rich E or G chord in the open position on an SG: yes, this is a Gibson. This is exactly that ideal sound that guitar maniacs queue up for and have been paying their hard-earned money for half a century to possess. The guitar sounds like a grand piano, with a kind of resonant deep tension characteristic of the flagship of Gibson production — Les Paul. But, naturally, if the SG sounded exactly like an LP, there would be little point in it. To put it simply in two words — the SG is a biting LP. The same powerful, clear sound but even more punchy and ringing. And if we talk about the SG Gothic — well, there you can even find sawmill-like examples to the delight of metalheads. When soloing on a clean sound, the SG has more familiar glassy Telecaster/Stratocaster notes in its palette, and on a dirty one, less pleasant muddiness compared to the Gibson LP. Conclusion The guitar is easy to handle, both financially and in terms of comfort and playing pleasure, beautiful, with a rich history and a famous brand; it will definitely suit all guitarists, as its classic nature successfully combines with decent versatility. To those who have still not tried playing a Gibson SG and remain captive to prejudices, I recommend playing it and forming your own impression. The guitar is in new condition, just like the case, and documents are included (which is a rarity)! The guitar is in Dnipropetrovsk! It can be auditioned on good tube equipment of your choice — Mesa Boogie, Marshall, Engl... I will deliver to any city in the CIS in 1-2 days
