~Guitar pictured is the actual guitar that you will receive~
1961 brought some big changes to the Gibson Les Paul™; most notably a sleek, all-new, double-cutaway, all-mahogany body design that would later be renamed the SG™. This Gibson Custom Shop model recreates the first Les Paul SG Customs, complete with Custom-style cosmetics, gold hardware, and a Sideways Vibrola™, a side-pull action vibrato that is similar to those found on models from the early 1960s. It also has a bound Authentic '61 Thin Profile mahogany neck, Grover® tuners, an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, three Custombucker pickups, CTS® vintage-taper pots, and Black Beauty capacitors.
Note: After close inspection, this instrument has cracks/blemishes on both sides of the nut, and finish cracks around the low E string side neck heel. (See Pics)
The guitar pictured is the actual guitar that you will receive. It comes with Gibson's Factory Warranty and our 100% satisfaction guarantee! It will be professionally set up and ready to play before it leaves our store.
All sales are final. No returns will be accepted unless the item shipped was incorrect or if that it was damaged in shipping.
