Gibson Custom 1961 SG Standard Reissue VOS

Immortalized by Santana at Woodstock and smashed onstage by Townsend, the Gibson SG is a rock icon. The Gibson Custom 1961 Les Paul SG Standard Reissue VOS takes you back to the first model year of the legendary solidbody electric guitar. The Les Paul SG Standard '61 is spec'd with a pair of toneful humbuckers; a fast, comfortable SlimTaper neck; and a silky smooth Plek'd rosewood fingerboard. The lightweight, sleekly contoured mahogany body delivers great sustain and no pain, even if you play all night. And the vintage-spec nitro finish looks and feels great while enhancing the tone of this legendary rock machine. Own your piece of rock history: the Gibson Custom 1961 Les Paul SG Standard Reissue VOS.

Gibson Custom paid just as much attention to this guitar's electronics as they did to its aesthetics. Every part of its internal signal path was designed to deliver dead-on 1961 SG tone. Of course, it's next to impossible to find genuine '50s PAFs (even for Gibson). Instead, the 1961 Les Paul SG Standard Reissue VOS sports a pair of Gibson's CustomBucker Alnico III unpotted humbuckers. The CustomBucker is the most historically accurate PAF copy ever. Take it from Gomp Guitars's guitar experts: The Gibson Custom 1961 Les Paul SG Standard Reissue VOS nails the original look, sound, and feel of the legendary '61 Les Paul SG Standard.
