Faithful tributes to our Golden Era. With this line of beloved classics, we brought back the instruments that shaped sounds across generations and genres of music.

We never stop inventing. Building on a solid legacy through continuous innovation, we added lighter-weight bodies, asymmetrical SlimTaper necks, and other advanced features.

Gibson USA has produced many signature models for the Artist Collection, including guitars created in collaboration with Tony Iommi, Kirk Douglas, and Brian Ray.

The pinnacle of Gibson and the most coveted instruments on earth. Handmade in the USA using generations-old techniques that defined guitar making. The crown jewel of the industry.

Well-worn favorites—built brand new. We developed specialized tools and technology to create expertly aged, handcrafted classics with the character, vibe, and feel of an original.

At its genesis in 1961, the SG was a Les Paul! Pushed along by the desire to innovate, Ted McCarty—one of Gibson's most industrious presidents—responded to the growing popularity of double-cut guitars in the market with the "devil horns" of the Solid Guitar (SG).

A staple in the pantheon of classic guitar designs, the SG caught on right away, and it's the best-selling Gibson model of all time.

Tony Iommi's iconic riffs, heavy tones, and massively influential albums created the blueprint for heavy metal and many other genres to follow. His career, like the man himself, is universally loved and revered. And while his innovative tuning and playing styles were a major part of his monstrous tones, a heavily-modified 1964 Gibson SG was at the center of it all.

Now Gibson USA has made a guitar based on the iconic original that launched countless heavy riffs, with a mahogany body, bound mahogany neck with a rounded profile, Indian rosewood fretboard with 22 frets, a Graph Tech® nut, Grover® Rotomatic® tuners with contemporary style buttons, and chrome-covered P-90 pickups. A reproduction of Tony's "Monkey" sticker is included in the case. A left-handed version is also available.

In one of our most faithful recreations yet, the Custom 60th Anniversary ’61 Les Paul SG is a stunner from top to bottom, and in the hands of Greta Van Fleet guitarist Jake Kiszka, it really comes to life.

In 1961, Gibson brought an entirely new shape to the lineup--what we now know as the Les Paul SG. A sleek, double-cutaway, all-mahogany body design that would eventually become Gibson’s most popular guitar to date. The now-iconic shapes were considered bold for the time, but then Gibson president, Ted McCarty, felt the market demanded new and innovative designs.
