Personal Thoughts:
The ’61 Les Paul SG Standard Reissue is Gibson’s tribute to one of the most iconic designs in rock history. With its slim double-cutaway body and lightning-fast ’61 Slim Taper neck, this guitar feels effortless to play, whether you’re powering through riffs or flying through leads.
The Custombucker pickups provide authentic early-’60s PAF tone — warm, articulate, and dynamic, with just the right amount of bite. Combined with the hand-wired Bumblebee capacitors, it delivers the unmistakable clarity and responsiveness that has made the SG a staple for generations.
Finished in a classic Faded Cherry Gloss, this one oozes vintage vibe while benefiting from all the precision and quality of the Gibson Custom Shop.
Condition Report:
Excellent overall. Small impression to the back of the body, lower bout. Otherwise extremely clean with little sign of play. Frets, hardware, and finish are in superb condition.
