Description

From 1962 and 1968, an extremely cool rock-n-roll machine, the Gibson SG/ Les Paul. This body was built in 1962 and had a neck break a few years later, leading to a factory re-neck process in 1968. It therefore has the slimmer nut width and an Indian rosewood board. It seemingly retains its original '62 pots and the patent no. pickups are period correct. There have been finish touchups over the years and a repair to the heel joint. The bridge and vibrato are chrome-plated rather than nickel, so are likely later replacements and not from 1962. Here's a chance to own a piece of Gibson's golden era history!

Comes with 1962 Hardshell Lifton Case (Black with Gold Lining)
