"If you wanna rock, you gotta break the rules!" — Jack Black

This 1971 SG is almost entirely original and absolutely dripping with vintage vibe. Well seasoned but far from abused, it has the look, feel, and attitude that only decades of honest play can create.

The comfortable C-shaped neck plays beautifully, with a slim fingerboard that still offers plenty of room to move around with ease. It feels fast, familiar, and ready for action.

Tonally, this SG delivers exactly what you'd hope for—big, aggressive, vibrant, and colorful. It has the punch, bite, and dynamic response to handle everything from gritty blues to full-throttle rock and roll, all while retaining the clarity and articulation that make great vintage SGs so inspiring.

Visually, the guitar wears an impressive coat of finish checking along with modest signs of honest wear throughout. The aging is natural and authentic, giving it tremendous character without crossing into abuse or neglect.

A true vintage rocker that's ready to take on its next chapter.

Includes a hardshell case (HSC).
