This guitar sounds marvellous no matter how the settings are hooked up, and it loves the shit outta Marshalls, Fenders and Mesa Boogies. Sounds killer riding a Blackstar too.
@@hoodedman07 ya know I'm not sure yet. Gibson certainly is putting the best foot forward. I haven't had the chance to play many (yet). And a 60s standard is def on my radar. The prices are fair and it seems Gibson is FINALLY listening to customers. The big question will be quality control.
I’m not rushing to get anything. I want to see what people think of them. Unfortunately the closet guitar center to me doesn’t usually have guitars over 1.5k or anything too interesting
When he first said Vibrola I thought oh Hell no he's gone totally corporate. Then he produces the other one and says "sideways wigglestick" I was pumped. Guess I'm a nerd. Lol
FACTORY wiggle stick Mark we missed you... one thing Gibson obviously should do to this guitar Channel with mark: Not only presenting the new models but also a show with older models (yes including norlin era) to keep the history alive. But not only the guitars some factory tours, and some brand's trivia.
Yeah they still can't get any reissue / historic / classic or whatever to sound like the originals (and I don't mean "as good as" -- just that they sound different) so they would shoot their own foot by showing that all their "clones" aren't really clones.
@@gryzew well the pickups are wound differently, the woods are not the same anymore, either the glue. Btw this originals series don't even have a true ABR1 bridge. Of course they don't sound the same. They are cool guitars. Maybe inspired by those predecessors but not even remotely close in sound and construction
@@modergav yes I know and also my point exactly. Gibson's marketing is "we recreated the old stuff as accurately as possible (until next year when we'll again say this is the year when we got a '59 right)". So they can't start showcasing the original guitars, the whole "it's a good idea to buy a $7k guitar" is based on the notion that it will be close to the real deal. Even 70s LPs aren't safe to show... pancake bodies, 3pc maple necks, spine crushing weight and those T-Tops weren't PAFs but they can still deliver a bite that would put shame on some of the current dull sounding Gibson guitars.
@@modergav They don't make money by showing their old guitars. They could remind of the weird models of Norlin era by doing some limited edition reissues, but those would probably work better as Epiphones. "Affordable spec'd" Gibson USA guitars are dead as an idea after the S series. It's still better for them to focus on QC in their core models, JC still needs to install a few more lightbulbs as I've seen it's still not perfect when you start looking for tooling marks etc. with a flashlight on their post-Henry 2019 guitars.
I just ordered my first SG the other day, A friend used to have a 61 type SG and I loved it. It was pretty much a perfect design! Can’t wait until mine comes in.
@@cgavin1 I did the same with a 2019 Les Paul haha and I’m about to put this 61 sg on my guitar center card too but still interest free monthly payments are only like 100 bucks and it’s my only debt so why not haha
I love what you’re doing at Gibson Mark. This is how marketing should work. Give the customer information that comes from a trusted oracle, add a dash of passion for the product and deliver on the promise. Great work! And by the way, GoTD is in great hands. Together you guys are creating a bright future for guitar!
It’s extremely nice to see my boy Mark on my favorite guitars page. Love you mark thank you Gibson for bringing this great historian to the best guitar maker ever!!!! You’re the man Mark!!! Fan for years sir!!
If your wet dream involves a guitar that can't hold tune -but at least, looks cool, then 👍 Bullseye! But if you want a fine instrument, that also looks cool... get the stoptail version.
AMS dot com was selling all 3 of theses as 'EXCLUSIVES' for 2019 (issued September 2018 w/'57 Classic's instead of '61's & 19TH Fret Neck Joint instead of 22nd Fret). I had to send 2 of the Sideways version back, one had Fret-Board ROT ! and one had the sideways tremolo, when retracted, it hit the Guitar cable, back it went !...so I got the MAESTRO version and its called the 2019 'SG' 'ORIGINAL'.....it is a CANNON, BUT, my 2017 SG Standard is a better Guitar! The '19 SG w/Sideways Tremolo had 3 '57 Classic P-Up's in it and it had the best tone on any guitar I ever owned...too bad it had to go back !
Getting 1 of these 61 SG guitar by Christmas. Played 1 2 weeks ago and fell in love perfect neck for my hands which are small.Saving for it now. What's up Mark.
While I appreciate the background music let's see him actually playing it and doing the licks Gibson. It's what we love about Mark. Glad to see Gibson doing the damn thing again finally. I might be buying a gibson again finally.
Paulo Freire Yeah. When he said 'we' it sounds as if he got down to do some 'real work' in the factory and chopped out some of that mahogany with his bare hands.......... Not !
I have an 09 SG Standard and I bought one of these and god this is my favorite guitar I just bought a 60s Les Paul standard and it is basically a hat rack at this point because of much I love this 61 sg.
Lars Söderberg Man,if you enjoy that guitar,even if the company that made it made huge mistakes and got a lot of hate,why you would be disapointed?If you like your guitar,rock it.

@Somewhere over the 🌈 Hey rainbow man/woman. Thanks for your comment. I shall print it and wipe my ass with it. Kindest regards.
Great to see you back on youtube after a short hiatus. Good info on a great guitar. Thank you Gibson for listening to the people and taking this company in the right direction. Mark is a great choice to help sell your brand again!
Been waiting so long to see Gibson post something about Mark! Hope Gibson has weekly videos like this of Mark jamming and schooling us on some good ol Gibson gear!
THIS is my favorite guitar of all time! "HEY HOMIE" nice to see ya Mark. ...... If I factory order a new SG, can I get it with your autograph? Hope life is good there in Tenn, bro
Played one of these last night. It's a must have. The guitars are alive. Harmonics jump right out of them and they are so resonant. Something about the SG just sounds magical. I don't think they're the most pleasing looking guitars but I'm willing to overlook all of that for the other benefits.
Loving this new gibson ownership, It just seems like they care once again. Im 100% getting a gibson this year. Also loving its not a new guitar range yearly. The yearly cycle put me off pulling the trigger. Constant cycle of should i wait for current year to go on sale or wait to see of the new stuff is any better. Thank you very much gibson
I am back, baby! I used to have a 73 SG. My late father's SG is up in my bedroom closet. I just bought a 61 SG from Sweetwater. It has taken me a while to put the pieces together (won't go into the details, but when you're drawing up plans to build a Tele with a mahogany body and a mahogany neck and humbuckers, what do you think it is that you really want?), but I am totally home.
I have this beast in burnt cherry, almost looks black until you look closely or are in the right light. And it's absolutely beautiful! I Love this axe. At first you'll have some irking tuning instability issues when using the vibrola, and it will piss you off. The good news (or not so good) is this vibrola system requires about 20 hours of playtime before all the nuts and bolts, screws, saddle, bridge and tuners adjust themselves to a point where they settle into the guitar and finally stop detuning it. After this 20 hour breaking in time you'll have an axe of outstanding tone and playability that can play any style and genre and stay in tune. You won't want to put it down.
Recently played a Gibson for the first time yesterday at Guitar Center, played an SG standard and I loved it! My birthday is coming up next month, might have to spoil myself a little 🤘
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
I'm not sure guys, but I think he wants you to know these guitars are the sound of '60s 😜seriously though, great stuff Mark, nice to see you doing well at Gibson!
There was this guy who use to teach about the history of all these great guitars. He was on a vintage guitar channel. Looked an awful lot like you. Except this guy I’m talking about wore a leather jacket with zippers on it. Always trying to relic the expensive ones. Again.. great to hear from ya again mark
I just bought a new 2020 gibson custom shop 64 SG STD with maestro trem and a gibson nashville custom shop 64 es 335 cherry custombuckers. Both sound great im very happy with the tone,playability.i have 1 complaint,1 wish gibson custom would have used a better grade of indian rosewood like the early mid 2000 custom shop guitars.i know its expensive but other companies hav it available why not Gibson.u paid $5299 for the ES 335 and $4599 for the 64re SG. For these prices every effort should be made to provide THE highest quality materials. Please respond since your their spokesman
Would be nice to hear more playing Mark - let's hear what these tapered pots sound like! Very slick... I think some of the SG's you did at GOTD were the best sounding of all.
That was the guitar Mick Taylor played in the infamous Rolling Stones '69 tour that ended at Altamont, CA! You can see it in action in the movie, "Gimme Shelter".
I wonder what it sounds like with all EQs at noon and just a little bit of reverb.. : )
Going through the VOX AC 30
E-Norm-ous!! 😁
Lol
I bet it would sound GREAT through a Marshall tube amp
This guitar sounds marvellous no matter how the settings are hooked up, and it loves the shit outta Marshalls, Fenders and Mesa Boogies. Sounds killer riding a Blackstar too.
Mark giving Gibson credibility.
Mark giving anything he does credibility
Sooo good to see him helping make Gibson great again.
So much for that....after his strange faces video threatening everyone else.
You've been warned...
He's the perfect face of why I'll never give Gibson a penny.
God bless the Gibson-Agnesi era. Finally someone is doing it right
Yes, Sir. We should also give credit where credit is due and give props to the new CEO James Curleigh helping things get turned around.
All agreed man, additionally I´m wondering about Agnesi's blinking rhythm, it's not so solid as SG guitars.
I think you should bundle a "1 of everything" package with 10 year financing:)
As long as the interest is similar to my mortgage, because the price would likely be the same. XD
I'm down for that plan right now :)
AMS and Zzounds have. 18 month financing on these now..
You can tell he loves saying 'we' in reference to Gibson
Sol Cartledge I was thinking that too 😂 he used to say “Gibson” or “they”
I bet that is on purpose. Mark has been openly critical of Gibson recently. Getting a guy like him on board ($) could definitely help the image.
Dont talk to me are you saying he’s a sell out or he’s being honest about the increase in quality and the new image Gibson is trying to achieve
@@hoodedman07 ya know I'm not sure yet. Gibson certainly is putting the best foot forward. I haven't had the chance to play many (yet). And a 60s standard is def on my radar. The prices are fair and it seems Gibson is FINALLY listening to customers.

I just ordered my first SG the other day, A friend used to have a 61 type SG and I loved it. It was pretty much a perfect design! Can’t wait until mine comes in.
I got one on 0% finance. Like a schmuck. I'll still be paying for that thing in 2023. lool
@@levkamenev3904 Even the more economical faded series SGs are heaven on earth to play. For some reason they all just play and sound heavenly.

That’s got to be super cool to say “We” - knowing you’re a part of and now representing the history of Gibson. Great work Mark!!
We’re up front in the couch for the guitar of the year 😊

YAY MARK AGNESI GIBSON OF THE DAY and remember the eqs at noon with a little bit of reverb
Face. Melted. Goddamn I want one of these so bad. I wonder how these sound up against the new Custom Shop '64 Reissue...
ooooooh, these audio taper pots sound like a real game changer. Can't wait!
I'm not sure guys, but I think he wants you to know these guitars are the sound of '60s 😜seriously though, great stuff Mark, nice to see you doing well at Gibson!
Damn, Mark. Glad to see you're really enjoying yourself at Gibson, you're definitely doing them proud!
Congrats on the new gig man!
It's good to see you at Gibson..
I am excited as hell about the future of my favorite guitars.
Great video Mark
Great to see Mark doing his thing!!!
Is it true that the action is really high and can't be lowered?
They got a great knowledgeable guy there wish him the best!!
There you have it! Are all eqs at noon?
Dude this is so dopeeeee!! I want one! Also loveeee mark and am so excited for him at Gibson! I think he will be an ambassador we have not had!
Welcome back mark.
Thank you Gibson! Digging the Standard thing you are doing. This is a guitar I would like to own!
Thank you for the redundant explanation of the audio taper pots.
Oh my god that’s my dream guitar I just want one so fuckin badly
If it’s hand soldered than does that mean the quick connect system is gone??
It's odd hearing him not saying "Gibson use too" and now "we use too", you made it, mark!!!
Will it be available for left handed players?
The best thing to happen to Gibson in the past 20 years, you ask? Mark. Mark is the man!
I got the 63 Custom Shop model and it sounds fine. Thanks.
GO GIBSON!

Nice to see you again chief, 👍
I bought one in 2016. I’m glad I bought it because I love batwing guards. Would have preferred the electronics in this one though.
They could not have picked a better person to rep the brand. Very glad that Mark is showing off the quality that Gibson is returning to.
Great job Mark. Great guitar too.
Beautiful guitars! Would love to see then in black or white!
Agnesi rules! Welcome back Mark.
Would be nice to hear more playing Mark - let's hear what these tapered pots sound like!
Very slick... I think some of the SG's you did at GOTD were the best sounding of all.
I like the new gibson series. Back to the roots and not to expensive. Very cool!
are linear taper pots really sold in any guitar? never noticed that
great but sad the 'playing' didn't match the audio. Still happy to see anything SG. I miss my '64 all the time and love my second G-400.
That was the guitar Mick Taylor played in the infamous Rolling Stones '69 tour that ended at Altamont, CA! You can see it in action in the movie, "Gimme Shelter".
