Week 26 - SG '61 Reissue Classic White
In 1961, the traditional Les Paul Standard received a makeover that included a thinner body with sharply pointed double cutaways and, eventually, a new name—the SG. Today's reissue comes in a gleaming Classic White finish and features the small pickguard and nickel-plated hardware of the original '61.
Limited run of 400
