1967 Gibson SG
Peak-era SG Standard from the late 1960s. Excellent player guitars with strong vintage tone. The SG's thin body and light weight are a relief compared to the heavier Les Paul reissues of the same era.

Collector's Notes
Cherry SGs can fade significantly — original deep cherry vs. faded brown is a significant value factor. The SG Standard is one of the most widely available vintage Gibsons, keeping prices reasonable.
