1965 GibsonSG Junior – Cardinal Red
We love a custom color SG Junior, and this one from 1965 in its original Cardinal Red finish is no exception! Throughout 1965, Gibson was using up its stock of remaining nickel-plated parts before moving over to chrome, with some instruments like this one receiving both hardware finishes! The contrast of these black appointments with nickel and chrome hardware makes the Cardinal Red pop, and the wear throughout shows how much of a rockin’ guitar this truly is! This body is nice and lightweight, and this singular P-90 packs its expected punch. There’s a reason this model is a classic!!
