Description
The SG has always been a rebel's guitar; lean, sharp, and dripping with attitude. This Gibson Custom Shop SG Custom Figured Top in Blue Widow Gloss takes that classic spirit and elevates it with a striking figured maple top and Custom Shop-level craftsmanship. It's made for players who demand something truly exceptional-whether you're a collector, stage regular, or a studio tone-chaser looking for vintage soul with modern edge.
Born from the lineage of early '60s SGs but pushed into boutique territory, this SG Custom honors the iconic original while offering a hand-selected figured top that sets it apart. Its Blue Widow Gloss finish feels electric; a deep, dimensional blue that shifts with the light and hints at something mysterious beneath the surface. The aged nickel CustomBuckers complete the vintage-correct vibe, delivering articulate, touch-sensitive tones with warmth, bite, and clarity-everything you'd want for classic rock, blues, or fusion work.
Underneath the stunning visuals lies a solid mahogany body and neck, paired with a figured maple top that not only adds visual drama but sweetens the upper mids and adds just a touch of snap to the SG's naturally resonant voice. The CustomBucker Aged pickups, wired by hand with black Top Hat knobs, give you that unmistakable Gibson growl, with smooth cleans and snarling overdrive on tap.
The 1959 Authentic Medium profile neck (.860" at the 1st fret, .975" at the 12th) feels substantial but not overwhelming-perfect for players who appreciate a vintage carve that sits comfortably in hand. The ebony fingerboard, topped with medium-jumbo Jescar reissue frets, plays fast and clean, while the Grover Kidney tuners and Corian nut offer outstanding tuning stability and intonation. From feel to function, this SG is as much a player's guitar as it is a showpiece.
Visually, this guitar commands attention. The Blue Widow Gloss finish over a handpicked maple top brings depth and complexity, while mother of pearl block inlays and nickel hardware echo a refined, upscale aesthetic. It's bold, elegant, and undeniably rock 'n' roll.
At Cream City Music, we're genuinely impressed by this one; it's not just a premium SG-it's a statement. A Custom Shop creation that balances high-end artistry with raw sonic power, the Blue Widow SG is ready for the spotlight, the studio, or the centerpiece of your collection.
