Short Scale, Big Sound
The Gibson SG Standard Bass features a short, 30"" scale length that makes playing a breeze, whether you're a beginner or a seasoned bassist looking to expand your tonal palette. The shorter scale means less string tension, allowing for easier fretting and bendability. And thanks to its dual humbucking pickups, the SG Standard Bass still packs plenty of low-end punch and midrange grit.
Iconic SG Styling
With its mahogany body, arched top, and distinctive double cutaways, the Gibson SG Standard Bass embodies the rebellious spirit of the original 1961 SG. A nitrocellulose finish in Heritage Cherry adds a vintage touch, while black speed knobs, pickup covers, and a 3-point bridge provide a sleek, rock-ready aesthetic.

In addition to its short scale and slim, comfortable neck, the Gibson SG Standard Bass features a Tune-o-matic bridge with stop tailpiece for solid intonation and sustain. The dual humbucking pickups deliver a warm, punchy tone that cuts through the mix.
