The SG Standard 61 Maestro Vibrola returns to the classic design that made it relevant, played and loved - shaping sound across generations and genres of music. As the name implies, the Gibson SG Standard '61 Maestro Vibrola adds vibrato capability to the SG Standard '61. The Maestro Vibrola offers smooth vibrato effects and the classic styling of the Lyre engraving on the tailpiece cover. Standard features include a slim taper mahogany neck and a bound rosewood fingerboard. The mahogany body features a deeply sculpted body scarf, a 5-ply teardrop pickguard and a 22nd-fret neck joint. The nickel plated hardware includes a classic-style TuneO-Matic bridge and keystone tuners in addition to the Maestro Vibrola Tailpiece. The pickups are 61R and 61T humbuckers for a classic voice with added power and top end. Controls feature audio taper potentiometers and orange drop capacitors.

Finish Available: Vintage Cherry

I bought this as they are so light, and I was looking for a bit more higher tone then my Les Pauls. I never really liked the looks of the SG, but recently they have grown on me, and now I find the a very nice looking guitar. It may not have the top of a Les Paul, or bindings on the body, but in its plainness it finds it beauty. Such an easy guitar to play, and has worked itself int a regular rotation.

This SG is a beauty. Great fit and finish and fantastic sound. The Vibrola tailpiece ads great visual appeal and doesn't impact the tuning too much when used sparingly. Truthfully I will rarely use the vibrola but it really completes the instrument in my opinion. If you love the look then go for it.

Gibson kinda messed up on the top finish on this one! I spotted several dimples here and there. Rest of it looks ok. Once I play it / go over it at home, I may add to this review George Edwards Nanaimo , BC April 11, 2022

After owning a couple so's over the past years and always seeming to sell them for one reason or another. This one will be staying. It's the perfect weight and feel. Not neck heavy at all, which I think is what turns me off so's sometimes. It looks absolutely awesome and sounds snarly and rude, and stays in tune really well. Only down side is now I want to check out the side ways wiggle stick model to see how it compares....

Closest Store   Oshawa, Ontario
I went to the Long and McQuade in Oshawa to inquire if they ever get a Gibson SG Standard '61 Maestro Vibrola - Vintage Cherry. They said that they would give me a call when they did. I remember seeing them in the early 70’s. Low and behold the store manger called me. So I went after work to check it out. The store manger brought it out and we did a box opening. When I touched the neck the for the first time, I new this guitar was coming home with me. I took the guitar home, plugged it in and I couldn’t put it down. I just loved playing it . The staff at the Long and McQuade Oshawa are very knowledgeable and always there to help. The quality of the guitar amazing. Gibson you’re on the right track!! Thomas

I bought this guitar at the Cambridge store great staff as well. All I have to say being that I've owned many SGS this one's fantastic. Such a joy to play and great whammy bar as well. The 61 pickups sound great. Thank you Cambridge for such a nice guitar and a very unique one as well.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
