Fade Cherry, Back Fade Cherry, Close Angle

In 1961 Gibson president Ted McCarty set out to create a better Les Paul by lightening it up and increasing access to the upper frets. The result was this radical new, highly carved design-the Solid Guitar, shortened to SG. BurstBucker humbuckers supply historically-accurate "Patent Applied For" tone. With a solid mahogany body and neck,ABR1 bridge and vintage tulip tuners, this is the real McCoy.

This is an essential guitar for the SG enthusiast. It is set up like an early SG with '60s mods such as Chrome Grovers and stop tail.Attention to detail includes relic finish,knob pointers and early '60s style heel. fingerboard is wider at the heel than a '61 RI and the neck has a deeper shape.The electronics are amazing and it plays better than it looks! Go get it!
