This mint condition Gibson Custom Shop SG special oozes 50s vibes and retro magic thanks to it's TV yellow finish (a colour introduced to tame the glare from white finishes on black and white televisions in the 1950's), button tuners and tortoiseshell pickguard.
Weighing 7.23lbs it's lighter than most standard model reissues and it's all mahogany body provides a deep grunt that makes these models so coveted by many notable rock musicians. The 1960 slim taper neck is a breeze to play and the classic Gibson neck spec makes way for the fastest of runs.
As stated before this Les Paul special is in as new condition, displaying no signs of wear and tear. It has it's coa, tags and the period correct pink lined Gibson hard case.
