About This Guitar
Serial: CS503828
Weight: 7 lbs 8.4 oz
The Gibson Custom SG Custom takes the fast, aggressive feel of the classic SG platform and elevates it with the upscale appointments and commanding presence of Gibson’s flagship Custom line. Finished in timeless Ebony with gold hardware, multi-ply binding, and the unmistakable split diamond headstock inlay, this SG Custom delivers the refined visual identity of a Les Paul Custom with the lightweight comfort and upper fret access that only an SG can offer.
Built with a solid mahogany body and set mahogany neck, the SG Custom offers exceptional resonance, immediate attack, and a focused midrange voice that cuts effortlessly through a mix. The slim body keeps the instrument lively and comfortable, while the ebony fingerboard adds snap, clarity, and a smooth playing surface for fast, precise work across the neck. The three-pickup configuration expands the tonal palette even further, giving players access to a wider range of textures from warm neck tones to cutting bridge response, with the added flexibility of the middle pickup position for unique blended voices.
At 7 lbs 8.4 oz, this example strikes an ideal balance—light enough for effortless stage comfort while still retaining the sustain and authority players expect from a Custom Shop SG.
