Straight SG for left-handers with first-class handling and classic sound
The Gibson SG Tribute Vintage Cherry Satin Lefthand is a straightforward workhorse in the classic doublecut design without unnecessary ornamentation and convinces as a left-handed model instead with optimal playing characteristics and a first-class sound. Here Gibson combines the traditional mahogany body with a glued maple neck, whose "rounded" profile guarantees optimal playing characteristics. With Alnico-II magnets equipped Gibson 490 humbuckers deliver a powerful sound with wide midrange and lively response, which turns out to be an all-rounder for blues, rock or even metal. Last but not least, the Gibson SG Tribute Vintage Cherry Satin Lefthand electric guitar for left-handers is equipped with precise VintageDeluxe tuners and the proven combo of Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stopbar tailpiece.
The Gibson SG Tribute Vintage Cherry Satin Lefthand is a true players guitar for left-handed players with a "no-frills" look, top-notch playing characteristics and characterful tone.
The comfortable "Rounded" maple neck of the SG Tribute can be played unhindered up to the highest registers.
Proven set-neck construction
For the construction of the SG Tribute left-handed guitar Gibson uses the well-known set-neck construction to achieve a powerful sound and comfortable playing characteristics. The legendary cutaway horns of the mahogany body allow unobstructed access to the higher registers, while the rounded profile of the glued maple neck fits comfortably in the hand and supports both classical and modern playing techniques on the 22-fret rosewood fingerboard.
Gibson 490 humbuckers equipped with Alnico II magnets in neck and bridge positions promise classic blues and rock sounds.
Gibson 490 Humbucker
As pickup for the SG Tribute Lefthand electric guitar chooses Gibson a Set of the popular 490 humbuckers. The classic Alnico II pickups turn out to be the successor of the legendary PAF humbuckers, but offer a slightly increased output to get powerful clean and overdrive sounds out of the guitar amp. While Gibson 490R humbucker in neck position promises a warm sound for soulful cleans and singing Overdrive, the slightly emphasized upper mids of Gibson 490T at the bridge provide a high assertiveness even with juicy distortion. A classic passive electrics with its own volume and tone controls for each pickup also allows the exact adjustment of the sound.
Vintage Deluxe Keystone tuners guarantee accurate and stable tuning of the SG Tribute electric guitar by Gibson.
Reliable hardware equipment
Last but not least, Gibson completes the SG Tribute Vintage Cherry Satin Lefthand guitar with high-quality attachments in proven vintage style. A stopbar tailpiece made of aluminum guides the strings over the NashvilleTune-O-Matic bridge, which is also made of aluminum and whose diverse adjustment options guarantee exact intonation and comfortable string position. On the classic "open book" headstock, vintage Deluxe tuners with traditional keystone pianos also keep the electric guitar securely in tune.
Great build quality, great sound, nice soft shell case, a USA made Gibson guitar at this price point is an excellent purchase in my opinion, usual speedy and efficient service from Music Store professional, always my go to company for my musical needs

This guitar is a full-blooded SG without the superficial additions. The sound is classic SG, with a definite late 60's vibe. Having recently owned a 61 reissue SG I find the sound of this guitar to be more "up-front" and satisfying than its more expensive counterpart. Also, the rounded neck profile feels much more comfortable for long periods of playing. It looks great and understated in walnut. The only thing I didn't like was the uncovered pick-ups but this was easily rectified by fitting some covers which were inexpensive and for me complete the look of this instrument. If you are looking for a real SG but not the price-tag then this is the guitar for you. Highly recommeded.
