Gibson SG Carved Top Autumn Burst
The model that replaced the original single-cutaway Les Paul Standard in 1961 was considered a more straight-on take on the solid body electric guitar. The Les Paul/SG (later simply the SG) lacked the elaborate crafting, multi-wood body and arched top of its predecessor, and was also a step further away from Gibson’s traditional guitar-building routine.

Gibson has announced the addition of the Tribal V and SG Carved Top Autumn Burst to the 2009 Limited Run series. Both guitars are available in early March and are limited to 350 pieces each.
Gibson SG Standard Electric Guitar, Heritage Cherry
In 1960, Gibson initiated a thorough and major redesign of the iconic Les Paul Standards of the late 1950s. It was a bold move at the height of Gibson’s original Golden Era, and it paid off. The result was the 1961 Gibson SG Les Paul (later renamed the SG Standard), now painstakingly recreated as the SG ’61 Reissue. The debut of the SG announced a new, radical design for Gibson and the world. Short for “solid guitar,” the SG featured a much thinner body, distinctive twin cutaways, pointed horns, and beveled edges.
