Essential Information About the Gibson SG Standard Bass

• Short 30.5" scale length for ultra-comfortable playability and a powerful fundamental tone, ideal for small hands or fast playing.
• Mahogany construction (body and neck) with rosewood fingerboard for warm lows, dense mids, and natural sustain.
• Two calibrated SG pickups (neck/bridge) with 2 independent volumes + 1 master tone for precise blends, from vintage roundness to a sharper attack.
• Legendary SG look, glossy nitro lacquer, Grover Shamrocks tuners, and 3-point bridge for reliable tuning stability and intonation.

An Icon Born in the Sixties, Modernized for Today

Heir to the SG silhouette introduced in the early 60s, the SG Standard Bass continues the tradition of Gibson short-scale basses. It stands as a timeless "Standard" model: authentic finishes, simple and effective electronics, and ergonomics designed for both stage and studio.

Who Is It For and What Styles?

Perfect for beginner bassists transitioning from guitar as well as intermediate and professional players seeking thick, fast lows under the fingers. Its personality shines in rock, blues, indie/garage, soul, pop, and vintage hard rock, while remaining comfortable in recordings where a rich and focused low end is desired.

The Sound

The mahogany + rosewood combination delivers round lows, woody mids, and the quick response typical of short scales. The neck pickup provides a broad, velvety foundation, while the bridge pickup adds more attack, definition, and presence. The two volume controls allow precise blending between warmth and bite, and the master tone extends the palette toward softer colors. The adjustable 3-point bridge optimizes intonation and sustain, and the nitro finish lets the wood resonate for organic projection.

Glossary

• Scale length: vibrating length of the string (here 30.5" / 775 mm) affecting tension, attack, and timbre.
• Radius: fingerboard curvature (12" / 305 mm) affecting comfort in positions and bending.
• Nut: piece guiding the strings at the headstock, here Graph Tech for stability and precision.
• Bridge: string anchor/adjustment on the body side, here 3-point adjustable for fine intonation.
