1961 GibsonLes Paul/SG Custom – Black


This 1961 Gibson Les Paul/SG Custom looks drop-dead gorgeous in its original factory Black custom finish! It’s just insane how slick and beautiful this guitar looks, and it’s in excellent overall condition too. The contrast of the Black finish, ebony board, white trim, and gold hardware is truly an unbeatable combination. The neck feels incredible in the hand, and the action is perfectly set for effortless playing. All three PAFs are wonderfully balanced, and sound stunning in essentially every configuration. Included with this guitar is a photo of the original owner with the guitar back in the day, as well as the guitar’s original instructions and screwdriver!
