From Our Research Team:Celebrating 50 Years of Guitar RockFew guitars have rocked as long and hard as the Gibson SG (historically speaking), so celebrate five decades of its prowess with the Gibson 50th Anniversary Diablo SG solidbody electric guitar! The Diablo SG embodies the best of the SG's hard-rocking side, starting with the iconic combination of a mahogany body and neck with a rosewood fingerboard. Dual humbucking pickups give you the growling bite that became the sound of rock 'n' roll. And thanks to a genuine Floyd-Rose vibrato tailpiece, the Diablo SG lets you squeal and divebomb with impeccable stability. So celebrate 50 years of one of the hardest-rocking guitars in show business - the Gibson 50th Anniversary Diablo SG solidbody electric guitar!Gibson 50th Anniversary Diablo SG Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
Two fat, smoking humbuckers When you really want to cook on a solo or deliver some thunderous power chords, you reach for a guitar that's got a pair of humbuckers, right? Forget all those thin "out-of-phase" guitar sounds that the session players overused in the 1980s and (sad to say) right through much of the '90s. That's not for you. Your sound is all about the warmth, punch and midrange complexity you can only get from a pair of Gibson humbuckers. The Diablo SG comes with a pair of chrome covered humbuckers: a 490R in the neck position and a 498T in the bridge position for uncompromising tonal power, whether you're playing rhythm or digging into a solo. Floyd-Rose tailpiece Gibson wanted to make sure the 50th Anniversary Diablo SG is primed to rock, so they equipped with a genuine Floyd-Rose vibrato tailpiece. Whether you're divebombing or just adding some extra expression to your solos, the Floyd-Rose vibrato provides smooth action and reliable tuning stability that you'll love. That's probably why the name Floyd-Rose is synonymous with vibrato tailpieces - it just feels right! Nitro Finish Gibson's 50th Anniversary Diablo SG wears a gorgeous nitrocellulose lacquer finish that gives the guitar a timeless, classic look. Nitro finishes - standard back in the '60s - are significantly thinner than today's polyurethane finishes, allowing the guitar to "breathe." Nitro finishes not only look sweet, they also enhance your guitar's tonal qualities - so your Diablo SG sounds every bit as wicked as it looks!

As soon as I learned about this guitar I called Sweetwater and had Jared Johnson put this on order, (Thank you Jared!). I have had this guitar for a few weeks now and have been able to put it through ... read more [+]its paces and see what it's got. It has a lot to offer. It plays great, sounds great and looks awesome! The neck is has a little more bulk than my 1989 SG Custom Deluxe. I had my Sweet Water rep (David Hess) snag this lovely out of the warehouse to look it over and give me his assesment before finalizing my order. He said the neck is similar to a Les Paul Axcess. I have never played a Les PAul Axcess, but if you have this point is relevant to you. I like the feel, it is not too bulky for me even though I am used to the very slim neck of my old SG.May 9, 2012 Music Background: Guitarist, recording engineer, project studio owner The Guitar is a little heavier in the body with the sculpted feature. I think this actually works in favor of the tone and balance of the guitar, in addition to giving it the needed depth for the Floyd Rose Tremolo. The Floyd Rose Tremolo works very well. It has been a while since I use a Floyd, I have a Fender Strat with one of their premium tremolos, this is a completely different feel. There is more tension on the bar when using it. The fine tuners are great and easy to use, with a pretty good range of tuning capability. There are some minor tuning challenges as I get accustomed to the Floyd Rose and locking mechanism on the nut. I gave it a 4.5 because I would like to have seen some color options, a cool sunburst or something, and the name Diablo is a little extreme. This guitar has a range of tones, from massive rhythmic crunch to expressive blues and snappy funk chops. A name is just a name and this guitar is awesome. close [-]
