Gibson - SG Standard Bass Heritage Cherry

The Gibson SG Standard Bass Heritage Cherry combines timeless vintage style with exceptional playability, delivering a unique musical experience for modern and nostalgic bassists. Inspired by the iconic SG design, this compact bass boasts an elegant appearance and a design optimized for playing comfort.

Its light but resonant mahogany body is enhanced by a Heritage Cherry finish applied with a high-gloss nitrocellulose varnish. This treatment not only accentuates its classic aesthetic, but also allows the wood to resonate naturally, promoting a rich and balanced sound.

The mahogany neck with a rounded profile offers a smooth and pleasant grip, while the rosewood fingerboard, featuring acrylic trapezoid inlays, guarantees a smooth and precise feel under the fingers.

With its short 30.5-inch (774.7 mm) scale length, this bass is particularly suited to smaller hands or players looking for reduced string tension for a more relaxed playing style.

On the electronic side, the SG Standard Bass is equipped with two calibrated SG Bass pickups: the Rhythm SG Bass neck pickup, ideal for deep and warm bass, and the Lead SG Bass bridge pickup, offering a cleaner and more defined attack.

These pickups, combined with the two independent volume knobs and the master tone control, allow you to explore a wide range of tones, from vintage growl to modern punch.

The three-point adjustable bridge ensures precise intonation and exceptional sustain, while the Grover Shamrocks tuners maintain stable tuning even during extended performances.

Finally, this bass comes with a Gibson hardshell case and an accessory kit to ensure its protection and maintenance.

Perfect for lovers of old-school tones or bassists looking for a compact, high-performance alternative, the Gibson SG Standard Bass Heritage Cherry is an instrument that is both versatile and full of character.
