Today I'm taking a look at the sound difference between a Gibson Les Paul Standard and a Gibson SG Standard! Using the same amp setting, same guitarist (err.. me) & Just playing about on the bridge pickup, mid position and neck pickup of both guitars to see how different they sound.
Let me know your thoughts in the comments - which do you prefer the look or sound of? Did you notice any difference at all? Is the sound mainly in the amp settings and the player's own unique style more than the guitar itself?

As an owner of both I can say I prefer playing the SG because it’s more comfortable, lighter, and easier to play. I definitely prefer the look of the LP though and mine even has a AAA top. I also find the LP has a fuller and more rounded tone with more sustain than the SG’s more biting and aggressive tone. I ultimately love them both.

I own both, as well, and I agree with everything you said. SGs have a great design and look fantastic but a Les Paul is sort of a work of art. The reason so many pros play them even today is because that belly carve really attracts a lot of attention on stage from the crowd. Even if they don't realize it, their eyes are drawn to. To me, that makes playing one live worth it, as long as it's not a pre-weight relief model.

Those are different in tone but my opinion not that much and that's why i pick SG better than LP, it's also very lightweight. I think SG is very much perfect humbucker guitar because it's light, all knops are right places and access to all frets easily on neck.

An unbiased intelligent comment. Well said.
I so want to be a les Paul guy with Slash inspiring me to start playing guitar. But the SG just sounds better and is easier to play, it’s lighter and more comfortable. Also so much of the older music I listen to has been played on SG with the doors, Clapton in cream, Jimi Hendrix with red house, ac/dc, black sabbath to name a few. It’s the sound my ears prefer.
I'm also partial to the SG these days. In the past, Ive owned several les pauls and one sg, so I've had enough time to figure it out. Personally, I don't think the les paul offers anything substantial that the sg doesn't. Therefore, I can't justify the physical weight of the lp, nor the weighty price tag, for whatever differences exist. The arguments for "sustain" and "fatter tone" are kind of irrelevant to my purposes. I'd gladly sacrifice those factors in favor of improved ergonomics.
I've owned both, I never bonded with the LP and eventually traded it in for a Princeton 12" and didn't miss it. This spring I ordered an SG exactly like yours and it's thrilling to play. Different strokes for different folks. Their sounds are similar but I prefer the SG for exactly the same reasons you stated. Stellar guitar work on your part!
Hey, Rob, sorry so late in responding to your post. Enjoyed listening to you play both guitars. Noticed there’s not THAT much difference in the sound. Another great vid, thanks, Rob!

Les Paul all the way for me!! I think it has a richer, more complex sound which fits so many different genres. And being a tall, 130 kg heavy guy I totally don't mind "heavy" or unergonomic guitars ;)
Rob, I too have an SG and an LP. My SG has the batwing guard like yours, and I adjusted the pickups to be level with the strings-like the LP-and the SG sounded more articulate. Try it-it doesn't require any drilling , just some foam under the pickups and perhaps a tiny bit of filing in the pickguard to allow the pickups to tilt more forward if they're a tight fit. If you don't care for it you can go back and no harm done. To my ears it sounded more even but everyone's taste is different.
i have a 2017 SG '61' Reissue, and I'm an SG fan all the way... a lot of which you pointed out as far as ergonomics go! Nice comparison!

I have a Gibson Les Paul Standard from around the same time. I believe that the pickups in it would be 490R and 498T. Correct me if I’m wrong but your 2019 SG will have a 490R and 490T. So in theory the same neck pickup type and I believe that the main difference between the 498T and 490T is that the 498T is a bit more overwound for higher output.

David Burke you’re correct, 490R & 490T in the SG! Great sounding pickups - thanks for watching
The LP has a fuller, richer, more big and open sounding tone. The gain saturates the signal in the LP a bit more leading to fluid, liquid sounding bends - where as the SG sounds more "dry". I am a recent convert to the idea of an SG, so I want to love it. I have had a Gibson LP for a yr and a half, and the ergonomics of the SG are starting to look appealing. Also, I really dig the look now! Go figure - I always hated the SG shape! Now I totally dig it!. I heard someone put it like this and I tend to agree: An SG growls, A Les Paul roars! (And a PRS purrs..) Great video, Bro, thanks!

I have a SG Standard and '61. The Standard has a flat EQ and more compressed, while the '61 is had a brighter chimy sound and a wider EQ. I did lower the neck pickup on the '61 as it was set too high, giving me way too much bass.
Own a LP custom shop 59 always interested in a SG but the LP covers that territory. I’ll probably go with a Tele to add to my Strat & LP.
Yes, of course
The les paul is such an excellent guitar, but the weight is what pulled me towards the sg, in the end. I still want another Lp though, but not for stage
Always wanted an SG and have owned multiple Les Paul’s. Just got a used 09 SG 61 and I’m in love.
I own both. I used to love lp until i got the sg. Its awesone guitar! In terms of sound and light weight
As someone who owns both an LP and SG you can't go wrong with either thought I do find it interesting that the LP actually sounded a bit brighter considering it's usually the other way around lol.

Matt Cop I was pretty surprised too! Perhaps it would sound different through an amp as opposed to amp sims.. perhaps that’s the next video!
With full gain not much of a difference in tone. When played clean I believe is when you can hear a difference, and that is the LP has a full bodied, warmer tone suited for jazz and blues while the SG has a thinner, brighter tone suited for rock and country. Physically the SG is user friendly by way of its light weight, thin body, double cutaways, all accessible frets, and easy to reach controls. The flat fingerboard makes it ideal for slide as Derek Trucks, Duane Allman, and Mick Taylor will attest. In contrast, the LP has attained Rolls Royce status by way of its lofty price tag , exquisite styling, and rock star pedigree.

TOTALLY agree! LP kills it!
Im a huge fan of both and have never been able to pick a fav.
I personally like to Play SGs more, for theyre way way lighter (im a tall but quite a slim guy, standing with a LP for over an hour actually makes my back hurt and is quite exhausting), i also like the slimmer neck more and the reachability of the higher frets is just amazing (even when using thumb techniques on low e string). Objectively soundwise.. id Say the Les Paul has definatly more pronounced/agessive hights, while the SG has stronger mids. (To me it makes the SG sound a bit more "Balanced" ) + when you got a "good" SG ... its just an amazing feel that you can feel the whole thing really vibrating while playing ^^ You maybe just need to get used to the bit of neckdive and stuff like that... But i never felt like i had to "fight" it, its more like that you get to learn how the guitar likes to be held :P (what im talking about, you actually can see in the video that he tends to hold the SG more upright. coz that eliminates the neckdive ;) at least its the same thing i do to compensate ) My dark Blue 1995 Limited edition, it is a bit of a "beast" that totally has his own personality ;) and thats actually the reason i love her :D
Personally, i could take either for the bridge pickup, but the neck pickup on the SG sounds better. I learned on les paul, but owned an SG and always thought the neck was a little longer because i was always missing the first fret by feel. When I play without looking. I want another SG, but realize it will take a while to get used to that.
They both great sounding guitars. They have there own voice, neither one better. But i prefer sg for extra edge... today. LP is more vintage sounding.
The tonal profiles are exactly the same but its the levels that are slightly different. Lp has more low end punch but sg has more midrange. I think those would both be 490’s too which means its the same pups per guitar.
They both sound similar, if I had to have one it’d probably be the SG....... I just wish it came in more colors than just black and red

The body scarfing makes the SG so comfortable to play. Not to mention the ease of accessing the higher frets.

Had both. Would left both but hadn`t enough money. Sold LP and left SG because of its beauty colour. Preferred SG for rock riffs and LP for surf tones.
Here, for me the Les Paul sounds better and I've never really liked the SG shape. But since I bought an SG to my son, I must admit : they're much more comfortable to play and the neck is great. And used with high gain, there's won't be much difference in sound. I've owned a flamed top Les Paul Custom for 29 years but I now I plan to buy an SG, the same as yours I think (Ebony Standard).

Les Paul tribute for the win
I had an Epiphone Les Paul and a Epi SG. Both have that great Gibson tone, but the SG has more midrange than the Les Paul. I sometimes think of the SG as Gibson's "answer" to the Fender Stratocaster. While the Tele has the high end tones and lots of twang, the Strat has more midrange and "quack". All four are great guitars. My preference, currently, is for the SG.
SG all the way!

With you on that one!
One thing that often escapes you in a casual glance at both is that the neck pickup in an SG is much closer to the bridge so neck position is definitely less “muddy’”/more defined. Obviously major differences in the construction of both give you a sonic contrast between the two. Les Paul: more low end and seemingly scooped in the mids because of the lows. SG: less low end cos it’s thinner and the neck joint is way less ‘solid’ (but doesn’t seem to affect sustain IME which is good) which lets the highs and mids speak more.

I've got a Les Paul Standard and a 1991 SG '61 reissue. SG is my choice.
I was a Les Paul guy since 1991. I wasn't paying regular as a working man, and sold my axe. My money went into my sons drums. In 2015 my neighbors granddaughter was learning guitar and needed an amp. I took her looking for a used one, and ended up with an SG for myself. I think I am stuck now, and it doesn't really fit my genre. I have 2 Jacksons, 3 LP, and 1 SG.(among others) I want another I can change the pickups on. The SG is currently my go to axe. I'm kinda' a Slayer guy and along that line, but I also like bands like Black 47, and Social Distortion. Any tips from anyone on tips for the pickups of the SG I will be getting soon? I really want a chugger. My current is staying stock. I'm keeping my LP's, but I'm not even picking them up these days. Thank you.
I own a Gibson SG and I loved it...but the issue is when I try mute picking my right palm Hurts because of the bridge
I’d love a comparison of the SG Modern (with maple cap) to a Les Paul.
The SG sounded a bit anemic next to the LP. Wondering if a pickup upgrade would make a difference.
The pickups are closer on the Sg, if you look at the LP the neck pickup is located closer to the neck. This gives a a brigther tone in position 2 and 3. In bridge position the sound is almost similar.

On a batwing pickguard SG, the bridge pickup has a tilt towards the bridge instead of flush with the strings. That drives a lot of players mad but some SG players I know like that quark.
Theres something chunky about the Les Paul soloing tones, just a bit different bottom end
While I prefer the LP's tone, I almost always pick up my SG instead. My LP weighs 10.6 pounds and the SG is 3 or more pounds lighter. The SG is more comfortable and also has much better upper fret access.

So I guess the question is is an LP worth that much more money when its so close. Seems like a lot of you really liked the SG, if you could only have one would you spend more money or go with the SG

Always loved the SG but I have to admit the LP has a much 'cleaner' sound here, I preferred it.
I thought the sg sounded great, I have one. But the lp had that classic jangly sound if you know what I mean. I don’t have one but, someday maybe.

The Les Paul Pickups must be 498T / 490R, wich was the standard humbucker configuration for the LPs in the 90's, except for some particular models (LP Classic, LP Deluxe). The SG Standard pickups are 490T / 490R. The 498T has a higher level output than the 490T.

Not really that good of a comparison. Pick ups are playing a massive part in this. I own 3 Lps and a 61 reissue sg. Up till about a month ago the Lps won hands down on tone. But I've just had some high end PAF clones, 50s wiring, bone nut and other bits done and the SG has come alive. Plays so much better. They're both excellent playing, sounding guitars. Obviously a LP will have more sustain over an sg due to the thickness of the body. But in whole I couldn't choose a favourite.
Nice comparison, thanks! And I would like to share a point regarding the ergonomics: Yes, you are right, this point goes to the SG, and at the same time the SG feels much longer and has some significant neck dive issues, while the LP is more compact. Thanks for your good job!

The 2021 Epiphone Custom Koa Les Paul over that Gibson all day long and the 2021 Epiphone Modern figured Sgs all day long over Gibson sg
SG sounds like a beautiful blonde (Kelly in "Married with children" type) who yells at you with that screaming voice, high notes and makes you love her more and more. It lifts you off the ground makes you feel lighter... Les Paul is like the legally music teacher who demands clear notes but not such of a same thrill. It just keeps you on the ground. In simple words, SG creates a sound that lasts longer like an echo and hits highs with louder warmer sounds. Les Paul hits more at lows and maybe little louder but overall the sound that comes out just doesn't stay for longer time.
