Gibson SG Standard Electric Guitar, Cherry Red with Hard Case (pre-owned)

Lightweight, Loud and Unmistakably Gibson.

Few guitars capture raw rock ’n’ roll spirit quite like a Gibson SG and this 1997 Cherry Red example wears its history with pride. Lightweight, resonant and effortlessly playable, it delivers everything players love about the SG design; biting humbucker tones, exceptional upper fret access and the legendary growl that has powered countless classics.

This is a guitar that has clearly spent more time making music than sitting in a case. The frets show only slight wear and the instrument remains in good used condition overall, ready for many more years of service. A non-original Schaller bridge has been fitted.

Cosmetically, the most notable mark is a sizeable blemish on the front toward outer edge where a player’s forearm meets the body. Beyond this, there are a handful of smaller knocks, scuffs and signs of handling consistent with nearly three decades of use.

Rather than detracting from its appeal, these marks give the guitar an honest, road-worn character. For players seeking a genuine Gibson SG with aged charm, proven reliability and all the attitude you’d expect, this one delivers in spades.
