Gibson '61 SG Reissue Electric Guitar Heritage Cherry
Gibson’s redesign of the Les Paul in 1960 was a bold move, but it paid off big time as sales increased dramatically with the announced a new, radical electric guitar. The body shape changed from the traditional single cutaway design to a symmetrical double cutaway. It also inspired a rebellious generation of ideas and music rarely experienced before, and certainly not since. Today, that same radical design – and restless spirit – lives on in Gibson’s celebrated SG line. The Gibson SG ’61 Reissue pays tribute to this revolutionary guitar.

Gibson 50th Anniversary Pete Townshend SG Electric Guitar Classic White
When Gibson replaced the original single-cutaway Les Paul Standard in 1961 with the new streamlined, double-cutaway design that would eventually be known simply as the SG, it revamped the entire range at the same time. Along came the "student model" SG Junior, too, and the SG Special with two P-90 pickups and dot fingerboard inlays. The SG Standard would become the choice of countless legendary rock, blues-rock and metal players over the years, but its P-90-loaded-peer, the Special, would land in the hands of the player at the helm of a quartet that The Guinness Book of World Records listed as "The Loudest Band in the World." From the late '60s into the '70s, Pete Townshend of The Who made the SG Special his own, and set new standards for rock power and energy in the process.

To celebrate the Golden Anniversary of the instrument behind the Live at Leeds-era Who performances and recordings, Gibson USA releases the 50th Anniversary Pete Townshend SG. Rendered with all the period-correct details of an early '60s Les Paul/SG Special, with Townshend's preferred hardware complement, this model represents the early '60s SG Special with a smaller pre-'65 pickguard (5-ply B/W/B/W/B) that Townshend used for the first British Quadrophenia shows in late 1972 and early '73, before switching to a Gibson Les Paul Deluxe for the remainder of the '70s.

Gibson Chad Kroeger Signature "Blackwater" Les Paul Electric Guitar Transparent Ebony
Who has sold over 30 million albums, had multiple award winning collaborations, and played to countless sold out arenas around the world? Chad Kroeger has, and he reminds you of who he really is with his new Signature "Blackwater" Les Paul from Gibson USA.

The Chad Kroeger "Blackwater" Les Paul comes disguised as a traditional single-cutaway Standard with all the appointments that have made this guitar legendary for more than 50 years, but hides some simple yet clever surprises that expand its sonic capabilities exponentially. In addition to its traditional magnetic humbucking pickups, a GraphTech™ Ghost® piezo bridge and related electronics provide an authentic acoustic guitar sound that can be used entirely on its own, patched parallel to the magnetic pickups through two amps, or blended with the traditional tone. Roll from atmospheric ballad to rock anthem at the twist of a knob, or craft your own new tones that blend elements of both.

With its killer hand-stained Trans Black AAA-flame maple top and unique trim package – featuring a truss-rod cover engraved with "Blackwater" in silver – the Chad Kroeger "Blackwater" Les Paul looks as unique as it sounds, too. Plus, it features Kroeger’s own idea of adding white star decals along the upper back fretboard, aligned with the standard fret markers, which allow you to see where your hand is positioned when playing on a darkened stage.
