Personal Thoughts

This '61 SG Standard Aged in Antique Pelham Blue is a stunning example of Gibson’s Custom Shop craftsmanship. The aged finish adds a gorgeous, vintage character to the already eye-catching Antique Pelham Blue, making it a truly standout piece. The Custombucker Alnico III pickups deliver classic SG tones with rich mids, smooth highs, and just the right amount of bite for everything from blues to hard rock.

The Slim 60s neck profile offers fast and comfortable playability, making this SG a joy to handle for leads and chords alike. Paired with the lightweight mahogany body, this guitar feels incredibly balanced and responsive. It's the perfect blend of vintage aesthetics and modern reliability.

 

Condition Report

This guitar is in excellent condition, with only very minor signs of play-wear that complement the factory-aged finish. The Antique Pelham Blue finish is vibrant and well-preserved, and the aged hardware maintains its vintage charm. The frets and rosewood fingerboard show little to no wear, ensuring smooth playability. All electronics are fully functional, delivering the dynamic tones you’d expect from a high-end Custom Shop instrument.

If you’re looking for an SG with timeless style, exceptional playability, and vintage character, this is a standout choice for both collectors and players.
