Killer tones from the Gibson SG Junior and SG Standard ’61 Maestro Vibrola | Guitar.com 

In 1968 I played a Gibson SG Junior in my band. It did everything I needed. and I adored it wouldn't play anything else except my lead guitarists Rick 360-12. Its still my favorite axe and I'm 73. Gibsons rule

All Juniors are amazing, but there’s something about the SG Junior that’s truly special.

It's a nice change of pace to hear clean/edge of breakup tone from an SG. Great video!

Great clip, once again Chris. I'm an SG player, so I always check out SG clips. These 2 sound fantastic. Cheers

Excellent demo, some fantastic sounds in this one. Particularly fond of the jr!

Two beasts. Loved the Jr.

a smart man uses an angle plug on SG's :)

Nice! Hi Chris, thumbnail tip: Avoid using the very bottom right corner as that's where RU-vid puts the time in the thumbnail display. Great stuff. Just a suggestion I'd wished someone did for me. ;)

That was awesome. What a jam 🎸 I have an SG and always want to get a Junior to round up my collection

Fabulous demo!

Beautiful guitars well played 👍🎸🎸

Great looking guitars, sounding brilliant!

Bertignac is my fav player with a sg junior : great player and nice person very underrated guitarist

Great recording sound btw! Really excellent.

Another great demo-Thanks Chris.Always enjoy your playing.

Great playing! I want the SG Junior. I'm having trouble justifying it though because I already have an SG w. 2 P90s.

Nice Sg's And Playing

I wanted to buy one of these Gibson SG Standard '61 Maestro Vibrola in Vintage Cherry for a while. After watching your video on this guitar i was totally discouraged from making my purchase due to you not being able to keep it in tune. But I went down to my local Guitar center here in Las Vegas and they had one in stock. I held it, the neck is outstanding the fret work is wonderful, the wood grain and color were so beautiful. I tuned it up and played a few cords and check the tuning, for sure it was out of tune. I fooled around trying to keep it in tune for three hours and became totally discouraged because this guitar was beautiful. So I did the only reasonable thing, I said to the salesman I am going to flip this Guitar Center pick, "blank side it stays here written side I buy it". It landed on written side so home with me it went, and boy am I glad it did. The next day I set out to find out why it wouldn't stay in tune and I discovered why, (fixed it) and now it's hard to knock it out of tune. First the tuning keys were lose and the screws holding the tuners on were striped from the factory, so i fixed that. Second the angle on the Vibrola is wrong from the factory, you need to tweak the angle and shim the Vibrola slightly, the E-string should not be touching the trem bar while in the resting position. Now polish the frets and do a complete set up. This guitar now when using the Vibrola as intended will stay in tune wonderfully. This guitar is a great guitar and if you take the time and put in the work to set it up properly, YOU WILL LOVE THIS GUITAR! I think that from the factory they just assemble the parts and are done, not realizing or having the time that it needs to make this fine guitar function together as a whole instrument. Glad I took the time and made the purchase. Please let your viewers know this is an amazing Gibson Guitar after the corrections are made. I Have no connection with Gibson and I am not a professional Luthier, so if i can fix it this guitar is fixable. Thank you

lowkey I want an SG Jr with the Maestro

Nice! Getting some huge Johnny T vibes off this outro jam. :) Edit: Nope. Its Stiv Bator.. definitely. Reminds me of Don't Go Away.

And I'm also a gay man lol
