Gibson Custom Shop 60th Anniversary 1961 Les Paul SG Standard VOS – Cherry Red

Featherweight Player

The 1961 transition year is one of the most storied chapters in Gibson history — the moment the Les Paul became the SG. This Custom Shop recreation nails it completely. Historically accurate in every detail, and remarkably light for a player that sounds and feels this substantial.


Exceptionally lightweight at just 6.75 lbs, this example is lively, resonant, and extremely comfortable to play. The all-mahogany construction delivers fast attack and rich midrange, paired with a slim 1961 neck profile that plays effortlessly up and down the board. The Custombuckers provide authentic PAF-style clarity, warmth, and dynamic response.

Features:

• Solid mahogany body and neck

• Authentic 1961 Slim Profile neck

• Indian rosewood fingerboard, 12 inch radius

• Dual Custombucker pickups

• ABR-1 bridge with Sideways Vibrola

• Hand-wired electronics with CTS pots and Black Beauty capacitors

• Nitrocellulose VOS finish with vintage patina

• 60th Anniversary backplate

Condition: Please examine photos carefully for any finish imperfections consistent or inconsistent with a VOS instrument.

Includes original Custom Shop case and case candy.

These anniversary SG-Les Paul models are highly sought after, combining historic significance, Custom Shop craftsmanship, and outstanding playability.
