If you are looking for a quality SG that is easy on the hands, is loaded with iconic tone, and pays tribute to the classic original, look no further than the Epiphone 1961 Les Paul SG Standard. A pro-level guitar at an affordable price range.
Made in partnership with the Gibson Custom Shop, this Inspired by Gibson™ SG guitar is Epiphone’s impressive recreation of one of the most important and popular guitar designs of all time.
The Epiphone 1961 Les Paul™ SG™ Standard pays tribute to the legendary original - the very first SG. In 1961, the original shape of the Les Paul model went on hiatus, replaced by an all-new design that is known today as the SG or “solid guitar.”
Featuring a two-piece solid mahogany, double-cutaway body with Custom Shop Historic bevels, it also has the one-piece mahogany, fast-playing SlimTaper™ C-shaped neck profile of those legendary early Les Paul SG models.
The guitar has been designed with historically inspired long pickguard and comes equipped with a pair of Gibson™ BurstBucker™ humbucking pickups wired to CTS® potentiometers and Mallory™ capacitors for total tone control. A Graph Tech® nut, and Switchcraft® output jack and toggle switch give you the added reliability in sound you need when performing or recording. The Epiphone Deluxe tuners feature a historically inspired double ring design.
This 1961 Epiphone SG is available in Aged Sixties Cherry and Aged Classic White. Of course, all of the legendary SG styling and cosmetic touches are here too, and a vintage-style hardshell case is also included so your guitar is safe when you're travelling!

I have this same guitar and absolutely love it!
Rock on!
Several years ago I had the privilege of playing a Gibson 1961 SG. This is identical in sound and appearance, right down to the truss rod cover. I’m loving these Epi recreations, keep it up guys!
Thanks so much for watching!
Please make a SG Custom in Cream White finish 😭
They did!
@@toddmoore2324 Yes, but the price is just stupid. It's still just Epiphone - beginner guitar cheaply made in China. For that money you can buy a nice Fender Vintera II Telecaster and still have money left for Texas Special pickups and a tweed case.
"please make a custom in white"
*A year later
"They did"
"It's too expensive I don't want it anymore I meant make a cheap crappy one, even though it's only a few hundred bucks more than the 61 les paul one in this video"
@@Broughttoyoubythesacklers Would you pay €1,600 for a Chinese-made guitar?
Are you stupid or are you just stupid?
@@BroughttoyoubythesacklersWould you really pay €1,600 for a Chinese-made guitar? Wow. Good luck, buddy.
Wow!
He must have been in the salon for hours to get his hair just right.
Great guitar. I have the cherry one. I switch up all the time between it and my Gibson SG Special.
That's awesome. Gotta love a Cherry SG!
Last factory Epiphone Sg 400 before pro comes today since 2012 serial indonesia factory?
Denish has GREAT HAIR . Do a demo of that mojo!!
An SG is next just trying t decide between the Epi 61 or the Tony Iommi...Epiphone any chance you want to offer me a 2-4-1 deal?
Also ide like to offer a suggestion for the next Epiphone (Inspired by Gibson) Custom Shop - a 1957 Aged Goldtop with P90's
I’m waiting for the ‘58 Custom Shop Epi Les Paul to go with my ‘59 😁
oooooh... that sounds awesome!
Love how epiphone releases a new demo video, like its a new release...this has been out for about a year or so now.....
And yet you’re here watching. 😅
@benlively77 actually, I started watching, and when I saw it was just a previous released model, I stopped.
Never would i sell my Epiphones for any Gibson
Being the owner of a 61 myself, i have to say the Epiphone is nothing like my 61.
Firstly the neck joint is not as smoothly finished as the Gibson 61, so to say it is a reproduction???
Just as well Les is no longer with us, he would have a lot to say about using his name on this guitar, Les never agreed to calling the SG a Les Paul.
For 800 USD I really doubt that guitar is going to be exactly like a Gibson les Paul 61 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Do you have the Epiphone? The neck joints of the Epi and the current Gibson 61 reissue look identical to me. Les Paul's name appeared on the truss rod cover in '61. The Epi is a Gibson SG minus the nitro finish and rosewood fretboard. It has better pickups than the current Gibson SG Standard with its 490s. It's a good deal at the price.
$1,000 you can keep it.
That hair/hairline scares me.
Oh stop with the budget bs Gibson sucks Epiphones are king
We love both :) Thanks for watching!
Many people don’t know that the Gibson Les Pauls of the late 60s were fitted with Epiphone pickups. The two have been a part of each other for a long time.
Get this Gibson turd off our Epiphone Page
Nope. Made in China garbage with a skinny little neck. I'm going to have to go aftermarket/guitar kit route to actually get what I want.
Um maybe you should have done you're research before you ran your mouth..the Quingdao Epiphone facility is completely American owned and operated Scott Lewis is facility manager along with American and Asian luthiers..the facility is owned by Gibson/Epiphone..so all you're speculations and assumptions meant nothing..
You have an opinion that has no basis in fact. Epiphone’s quality is very good and it kills Gibson which is incredibly disappointing. I should now - I bought 11 brand new Epiphones over 2021/22. How many did you buy?
@@AnthonyGoombots i wish Gibson would do a tour of the Epiphone factory. From the chinese tours Ive seen on other video websites Gibson Qingdao is nothing more than a state of the art facility where they build guitars. I think by having a factory tour they can bust many myths spread about Epiphone guitars.
@@AnthonyGoombots Watch me run my mouth again, then. Made. In. China. garbage. I never said who owned it. I never said who operates it. I don't care.
And, obviously, it means something. Otherwise, you wouldn't have responded. You can't stand that I have an opinion different than yours. If you want to go buy 100 Epiphones or any other made in China guitar, go ahead. It does not change what I like and why I like it or support it.
@@davidharding200 None. That's the point. Why would I waste my money on China made guitars with cheap poly finishes instead of nitro, skinny necks like the 61 SG and lower grade hardware, woods and electronics? Once in a while they upgrade some parts. But so what? I don't like the rest of the guitar. And I don't support where it's made. That's my prerogative which I do not expect anyone else to follow.
You don't even understand my opinion or why I have it in the first place. You just knee jerk react post about having no basis in fact about an opinion.
I just bought and returned a PRS S2 McCarty 594 because it wasn't what I liked. It felt too small and it was out of place sonically. For a little more money, I can go to Warmoth, pick out a body and neck spec'd out exactly how I want and ship it to a place to be finished in nitro in whatever color I want. Then I can assemble it using the highest grade parts and electronics to fine tune a final product tailored to my specific taste. I'm in the middle of building a baritone by doing just that.
For the build after that, I'm going to Precision guitar kits to have an SG custom built and send it to MJT guitars to have them finish it in a beautiful nitro. This way, I can get the shape I want, the type of wood I want, the fretboard, the frets, the inlay and, most importantly, the neck shape. Which is almost an inch thick at the first fret.
So, no, I'm not buying an Epiphone or a Gretsch Electromatic or an Eastman or any other guitar made in China. Not when I can go the aftermarket/guitar kit route and get exactly what I want how I want it. And that's a fact.
