Gibson 2019 CME exclusives


Gibson collaborated with Chicago Music Exchange for these colour exclusive SG Standards. In addition to the exciting colour variations, the guitars feature block inlays, tortoiseshell pickguards, non-PCB electronics & more importantly, T-Type pickups. Going down Gibson's history, the T-Types were highly rated pickups made between 1968 - late 1970s which are Alnico V-based. 

If only these were available as standard production, I would have considered one, really. The plan is to have an un-modded Gibson SG with a unique feature (colour in this case) which doesn't sound jaded (to my ears- I dislike Gibson humbuckers). Hmmph. 😒
