Gibson SG Deluxe 2013 - Lime Burst

Anyone looking for a really unusual yet harmonious SG, cannot miss the SG Deluxe Lime Burst! The bright Limeburst finish makes this Gibson SG Deluxe a visual delicacy. The green poison is applied with transparency and thereby gives visual access to the grain of the carefully selected figured maple top.

Like the greatest SGs ever made, the SG Deluxe starts with a foundation of solid mahogany, a tonewood with a long tradition at Gibson, then tops it with a Grade-AA figured maple top for a look more often associated with Les Paul 'Bursts. The body is crafted in the distinctive, thin asymmetrical dual-cutaway style, with iconic pointed "horns" and beveled edges to enhance playing comfort. A solid quarter-sawn mahogany neck is glued into the body in Gibson's time-tested tradition, and carved to a fast, slim '60s profile. It is topped with a bound fingerboard made from genuine rosewood with 24 medium-jumbo frets and split-diamond inlays, and finished in a bound headstock with split-diamond inlay. The SG Deluxe takes its firepower from a trio of 57 Classic humbucking pickups, some of the most popular recreations of vintage PAF humbuckers. It also loads in a Bigsby vibrato tailpiece with a set of genuine Grover locking tuners. All in all, and the SG Deluxe presents a great incarnation of the iconic original SG, and a superbly versatile, great-looking guitar that truly lives up to its name.
