The Gibson SG-3

Return to main New Gibson Models at 2007 Winter NAMM page
Return to main New Gibson Models at 2007 Frankfurt Musikmesse page

The SG-3 pushes the power, sustain, and tonal range of Gibson’s legendary SG into new sonic dimensions. Equipped with a radical 6-way pickup switch and three gold-plated Gibson humbuckers—a pair of ’57 Classics in the neck and middle positions, and a ’57 Classic Plus in the bridge position—the SG-3 goes where no SG has gone before. Sporting a chicken-head knob, Gibson’s exclusive rotary selector offers six pickup settings: bridge, bridge/middle, middle, middle/neck, neck, and bridge/neck. Combining unrivaled playability with an extraordinary spectrum of sweet yet scorching humbucker tones, the SG-3 is the perfect guitar for rock, metal, and blues guitarists.
