Presentation
The 1963 Les Paul SG Custom Reissue Maestro VOS is an iconic piece that captures the essence of a defining era in Gibson history. In 1963, the SG was still called the Les Paul, marking a stylistic and sonic transition for this legendary guitar.
This faithful reissue pays homage to that legacy, combining vintage specifications with meticulous detailing to recreate an authentic experience.
Crafted from solid mahogany, this SG Custom is distinguished by its Vintage Original Spec (VOS) Nitrocellulose lacquer finish, which accurately mimics the look and feel of a guitar that has been aged over time.
Its 1960s SlimTaper neck profile offers fast, comfortable playability, while its ebony fingerboard, adorned with mother-of-pearl inlays, provides a smooth, luxurious surface for fluid playing. The skin glue adjustment, coupled with a long tenon, ensures rich sustain and increased resonance.
On the sound side, this guitar is equipped with three unwaxed Custom Bucker Alnico 3 pickups, designed to authentically reproduce the distinctive timbre of the original PAFs. These pickups offer an impressive range of sound, from warm and open tones to powerful and dynamic sounds.
The CTS 500K potentiometers, combined with Black Beauty capacitors, allow precise control of volume and tone.
The Maestro Vibrola, with its iconic long design, adds a touch of expressiveness, ideal for subtle or bold vibratos. The ABR-1 bridge and Grover Kidney tuners ensure perfect intonation and impeccable tuning stability.
Delivered in a Custom Shop hardshell case with a Certificate of Authenticity, this SG Custom Reissue is a true piece of history, ideal for collectors and musicians seeking vintage sound and timeless aesthetics.

J'avais essayé cette guitare au magasin et bien qu'étant reparti avec une autre, cette SG m'a hanté... et j'ai fini par la commander pour ne pas la rater. Elle est plutôt lourde pour une SG (3759g) sans doute du fait de ses spécificités (vibrato maestro vibrola, 3ème micro, touche ébène) mais ça lui donne un meilleur équilibre qu'une Standard avec une sangle. Le 3ème micro gène un peu la main droite mais en le descendant un petit peu, il se fait oublier. Le vibrola ne gêne pas la tenue d'accord si l'on ne s'en sert pas... sinon ça reste correct si c'est juste pour faire vibrer des accords ça et là. C'est pas un Floyd Rose, c'est clair mais le look est ultra cool. L'accatillage doré avec les specs d'une Les Paul Custom (block inlays, diamong inlay et triple binding sur la tête) donne une touche classieuse à cette guitare. Oui le doré va se patiner au fil du temps, c'est inévitable. La finition VOS dédramatise déjà de ce côté-là en livrat une guitare avec un accastillage pré-patiné. La finition blanche craint les stands et les UV mais elle permet de ne pas passer inaperçu sous les feux de la rampe. On peut tout jouer avec cette SG et c'est tant mieux vu le tarif. Gibson recommence à délirer au niveau des prix et même si cette SG vient avec un étui noir/orange typique de ce qui était livré dans les 60s, la facture fait très mal au porte-monnaie.
