Another gorgeous looking guitar, in our opinion. This time it’s a real stunner of a 1962 Gibson Les Paul SG with the rare and desirable, ebony block for the short Maestro Vibrola. It is a great looking guitar that just happens to play rather well too.
No neck issues, no stress cracks, no headstock repairs or any other funny monkey business going on. Two superb sounding PAF pickups, both with lovely PAF stickers. Solder joints are all original and untouched too.
No other issues aside from a recent and excellent refret by Johnny Kinkade of Kinkade Guitars (they know what they are doing..!). All hardware is correct including the correct no wire ABR-1 bridge with factory ground, and roller base for the trem system.
Plays real well on fresh frets that have a loads of life on them. Neck is dead straight and it is a real joy to whizz up and down the fingerboard on this one. Both pickups are strong, powerful and full of wholesome meatiness. They are both very evenly balanced too and pitch this guitar straight into classic SG territory with killer PAF sounds.
This one being 1962 could have had 2 x PAF’s, 2 x PAT Number or one of each. This one rolled the dice and came up with a double six in the form of 2 x PAF’s and they have never had they’re covers off either.
Correct case, like the rest of the guitar, is in excellent shape. You should really have a look at the pictures and see for yourself the very cool condition this example is in. It has faded but it looks brilliant and has very little sign of abuse.
This is one really nice guitar that we are sure the new owner will fall in love with pretty quickly…
