About this product

Product Information

To many vintage guitar fans, it seems inconceivable that Gibson dumped the Sunburst Les Paul in 1960 and, during the following year, introduced a completely new design, the one that we know now as the SG ("solid guitar"). At the time, however, it made good business sense. Sales of the Les Paul were faltering, and Gibson decided to blow a breath of fresh air through its solidbody electric guitar line. The company described the result as an "ultra-thin, hand-contoured, double-cutaway body." The modernistic amalgam of bevels and points and angles was a radical departure, and this new book tells the story of all the SG models that followed: the Junior, Special, Standard, Custom, and more. There are interviews with and stories about Gibson personnel through the years, and all the major SG players, including Pete Townshend, Frank Zappa, Eric Clapton, Angus Young, George Harrison, Gary Rossington, Tony Iommi, and Derek Trucks. In the tradition of Tony Bacons bestselling series of guitar books, The SG Guitar Book is three great volumes in one package: a collection of drool-worthy pictures of the coolest guitars; a gripping story from the earliest prototypes to the latest exploits; and a detailed collectors database of every production SG model ever made.

  • Great book. Interesting read.

    As someone who owns and plays a 1964 Gibson SG (which I have owned since 1964), I find this book very interesting. The author does a great job of detailing the fascinating history of this iconic instrument and includes awsome color photos of many historically significant Gibson SG guitars. There is even a list of serial numbers for every SG ever made which helped me verify the year that my SG was born. Great book for a guitarist, musician, or a music lover who appreciates the significance of the Gibson SG. Good price. Quick shipment.
