Gibson SG Deluxe 1972, Walnut

Finished in Walnut, this 1972 Gibson SG Deluxe captures an interesting period in the evolution of the SG, blending the familiar double-cutaway design with features unique to the early Norlin era. This example remains all original, retaining the components and character it left the factory with, including its original pickups and hardware. The only notable issue is a cracked neck pickup ring. Its naturally aged Walnut finish and decades of honest use give the instrument the look of a guitar that has been enjoyed rather than preserved. For those interested in early-'70s Gibson production, this SG Deluxe offers an authentic snapshot of the model during a distinctive chapter in the company's history.
