Gibson SG Standard 61
Aftermarket Price History
Used-market sales only. Brand New listings excluded.
The SG Standard 61 exists for buyers who want the current-production SG to lean harder into the old idea instead of the generic one. Small shifts in carve, pickup voice and visual presentation make it feel more pointed than the broader SG Standard. People usually choose it because it feels more like the SG they had in mind before they ever opened the listings page.
Individual Listings (Used Market)
Used-condition sales and current used listings. Brand New listings excluded.
Market Report
Used examples typically trade between $1,400 and $1,650; anything under $1,375 is worth a close look. Prices have been largely flat (-0.6%) vs. 12 months ago. The market is predictable month to month.
This is a liquid market at ~21/month in recent sales — buyers have leverage and can afford to wait for the right example.
The market isn't particularly condition-sensitive (~7% spread). A player-grade example trades close to a clean one.
Related models
The current-spec sibling: same price with a modern neck profile instead of the slim 61 taper.
Higher-accuracy vintage reissue step up: stricter period-correct spec for buyers who want more than the 61 production model.
Formal step up: three humbuckers, multi-ply binding, ebony board — the prestige SG at a higher price.
