The Gibson SG is our best-selling electric guitar of all-time.

Since its 1961 inception, the Gibson SG™ has been the go-to guitar for rockers, rabble-rousers, and revolutionaries.

Handcrafted in Nashville

Today’s Gibson SG electric guitars are handcrafted by our artisans in Nashville, Tennessee, and built with a blend of cutting-edge technology and time-honored recipes, with no compromises on tone or playability and using responsibly sourced materials. Finished in nitrocellulose for unrivaled resonance and shipped in premium gig bags and hardshell cases for peace of mind on the road, whichever Gibson SG you choose, you are guaranteed a musical companion for life. And with an SG in your hands, it’s going to be one heck of a ride.

The Gibson difference.

Time-honored methods

Time-honored methods

At every price point, we use nitrocellulose lacquer finishes on Gibson electric guitars that look beautiful, age gracefully, and allow our instruments to feel acoustically resonant, dynamic, and alive. Arcane processes such as the scraping of excess finish from fingerboard binding with a razor are labor-intensive and time-consuming, but we believe that the extra effort pays dividends.

Tone for days and nights

Tone for days and nights
