Description
Our Take:
Combining the best of the Les Paul Custom with that of an SG, this SG Custom is lightweight, fast, and loud as hell! Not to mention, it’s an incredibly versatile instrument, thanks to the 490R and 498T Humbuckers which can be combined to complement a huge variety of musical styles. The ebony fingerboard is not only quick, but provides great clarity and sustain, and pairs up with the ebony finish and gold hardware to create an aesthetic that’s as attention-grabbing as the sound you get!
Gibson’s Take:
This recent Custom Shop guitar takes the engine and aesthetics of the iconic Les Paul Custom and applies them to the SG platform. The result is a huge-sounding, fast-playing and classy-looking instrument that will bring out the best in any player. The solid ebony fingerboard projects chords and notes with clarity and sustain, while the 490R and 498T humbuckers compliment a wide range of sonic possibilities, from clean jazz to the heaviest distortion.
