Sale Price: $11499
Description
Painfully recreated after vintage examples, this Gibson 1963 Les Paul SG Custom is packed with a trio of Custombucker pickups and a Maestro tailpiece.
The last year of the "Les Paul" moniker on the SG Custom was also the first year of the Maestro Vibrola...1963. Gibson Custom Shop has proudly recreated this desirable version of the SG Custom down to the original construction methods and contours. The result is a beautiful, versatile, and tremendous-sounding instrument that plays effortlessly. The solid Ebony fingerboard and revamped vintage-style electronics help it attain new sonic heights with clarity and sustain.
From the dimensions to the contours to the precise inlay patterns to the sonic experience, it's the top-of-the-line SG in every respect! It features Ultra Light Aging by the skilled artisans of the Murphy Lab. The Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aged finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of light play wear, giving it the unique character, vibe, and feel of an original example from the Gibson Golden Era.
