Gibson SG Special 50th Anniversary Pete Townsend Arctic White No Longer Available

The Gibson SG has been in production for 50 years now, though in 1961 it was first named as a Les Paul. It quickly became a standard workhorse for all kinds of music.

Gibson Custom Shop ‘1961 Les Paul’ Limited Edition (NO LONGER AVAILABLE)

Gibson Custom Shop '1961 Les Paul' Limited Edition (NO LONGER AVAILABLE)

This is a pretty faithful Custom Shop reproduction of the Gibson 1961 Les Paul, the first year of the shape that became the SG. With a patina treatment, this guitar looks like it’s been tucked away for years. It’s very resonant and rings; very comfortable to play and the Maestro works well and has another little known advantage – it adds a little bit of weight to the tail, counterbalancing the guitar so it doesn’t have the neck-heaviness that SG’s often do.
