The Epiphone 1961 Les Paul SG Standard is made in partnership with the Gibson Custom Shop. This Inspired by Gibson™ model is Epiphone’s impressive recreation of one of the most important and popular guitar designs ever made. The Epiphone 1961 Les Paul™ SG™ Standard pays tribute to the legendary original - the very first SG. In 1961, the original shape of the Les Paul model went on hiatus and replaced by an all-new design that is known today as the SG or “solid guitar.”
AT A GLANCE• Warm and resonant all-mahogany body
• Mahogany SlimTaper C profile neck
• Gibson BurstBucker Humbuckers
• Epiphone deluxe tuners
• Hardshell case included
Made from a two-piece solid mahogany, double-cutaway body with Custom Shop Historic bevels, this guitar also has a one-piece mahogany, fast-playing SlimTaper™ C-shaped neck profile of those legendary early Les Paul SG models.
A historically inspired long pickguard and is included along with a pair of Gibson™ BurstBucker™ humbucking pickups wired to CTS® potentiometers and Mallory™ capacitors, a Graph Tech® nut, and Switchcraft® output jack and toggle switch.
This 1961 Les Paul SG Standard also comes with Epiphone Deluxe tuners that feature a historically inspired double ring design.
This guitar is available in Aged Sixties Cherry and Aged Classic White finishes. You'll find all of the legendary SG styling and cosmetic features here too, and a vintage-style hardshell case is also included.
