The Epiphone SG Standard '61 Maestro Vibrola from the new Inspired by Gibson Collection recreates the original SG from 1961, with a redesigned sixties-style Maestro Vibrola.
The body is timelessly designed and crafted in Mahogany, with a Vintage Cherry finish and equipped with ProBucker™ humbuckers and CTS electronics.
Epiphone's ProBucker™ humbuckers are made with 18% nickel silver in the base and caps, the same alloy that Gibson used in its legendary factory in Kalamazoo when the humbucker was first invented. The result is a pickup that has made even connoisseurs believe they have played on a real gem from rock's childhood. The alloy has low conductivity and gives a more transparent and peaky signal.
The ProBucker™ also features sand cast Alnico II magnets, 4 conductors of quality wire, and is waxed to eliminate microphonics.
