Gibson Custom Shop 1961 Les Paul SG Standard Reissue Stop-Bar

Faithfully recreating one of Gibson’s most iconic transitional models, the Gibson Custom Shop 1961 Les Paul SG Standard Reissue Stop-Bar captures the look, feel, and tone of the legendary original.

The lightweight aluminum Stop-Bar tailpiece and ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge maximize sustain and tuning stability, while vintage-style Kluson tuners and period-correct appointments complete the authentic look. Finished in a beautiful nitrocellulose lacquer, the guitar will continue to age gracefully, developing the character and patina prized by collectors and players alike.
