The Gibson 60th Anniversary 1961 SG Standard VOS, seen here with a classic Cherry Red finish, is a premium quality recreation of 1961's game-changing Les Paul "Solid Guitar" - which was later renamed to simply "Gibson SG".

A 1960s Legend Reborn

Crafted at Gibson's world famous Custom Shop, every care has been taken to ensure that each and every aspect of this guitar is true to the original's 1961 design, from the woods and hardware, down to even the same type of glue used to bring it all together.

Gibson 60th Anniversary 1961 SG Standard VOS, Cherry Red Highlights

  • Historically accurate recreation of the original "Solid Guitar" from Gibson's Custom Shop
  • Vintage Original Spec status
  • Mahogany Body, with a classic Cherry Red finish
  • Slick-playing Mahogany neck, capped with a bound Rosewood fingerboard
  • Two vintage-sounding Custombucker pickups
  • Classic Sideways Vibrola whammy bar
  • Includes classic hardshell case with plush pink interior

Vintage Original Spec (VOS)

Not just reinforced with thick Gibson tone, this guitar has no problems looking the part too.

Built to VOS (Vintage Original Specification), Gibson aims to provide you with both the feel and the look of the original guitar, with lightly aged parts and a patina finish - giving you that vintage sensation in your playing.

Classic Gibson Tones

Nothing looks more iconic on an SG body than a pair of humbucker-style pickups.

This set of Gibsons Custombucker pickups remain one of the most historically accurate recreations of Gibsons highly revered '50's PAF style original pickups.

Ceasing production in 1962, original PAF's remain close to impossible to get hold of.

Gibsons Custombuckers, combined with faithful vintage-styled electronics, effortlessly deliver on the promise of matching the original tone of the legendary '61 SG Standard.

Maestro Vibrola

In place of a stoptail end-piece, this Custom Shop Gibson 1961 SG Standard comes equipped with a vintage-style "Maestro Vibrola" vibrato.

This offers the option of smooth vibrato effects, allowing you to add subtle inflections and pitch bends to your playing.
