2022 Gibson Custom 61 SG Standard Reissue VOS Vintage Cherry
Offered for your consideration is Gibson Custom Shop ’61 SG Reissue VOS, serial number 203071 built in 2022 and in near mint condition.
A 1969 Gibson SG was the first humbucker guitar and one of the primary gigging instruments of my youth. To this day, the SG remains a guitar that evokes many positive memories for me and remains a model that I am particularly fond of and invest in frequently for our inventory.
The relatively wide feeling SG neck has Gibson’s sleek 60's C-shape, a 1.687” nut width, a 12” fretboard radius and medium/jumbo frets. The guitar is equipped with Gibson's great-sounding Custombucker Alnico 3 PAF-style pickups. This all-mahogany solid body weighs just 6.0 pounds and is nicely balanced for no neck dive when strapped on.
The tone of this instrument is fat and woody, much like a Les Paul but without the weight of the LP. Please check out the brief sound sample of this guitar included below. It plays great too with a nice low, buzz-free setup with a new set of Elixir Nano .10's.
As a VOS format guitar, this instrument received very light aging at the factory consisting of a light patina added to the finish and some oxidation of the hardware. Other than the VOS aging, this guitar shows no flaws of any significance and the frets look like new as well. It comes with the original Gibson Custom Shop case with the certificate of authenticity and hang tags.
A new SG like this one has a street price of $4,300 but this near mint 2022 beauty can be had for a cool grand less. Make this marvelous SG yours. You will be very glad you did!
