1961 was a transitional year in the guitar world, marking both innovation and refinement in classic designs. Notably, Gibson gave the Les Paul a dramatic redesign, which would later become known as the SG (Solid Guitar). With its slimmer, double-cutaway body and lighter feel, the 1961 model offered easier upper fret access and a more aggressive look, appealing to emerging rock and blues players. Fender and other brands also continued evolving their ranges, making 1961 a year that helped shape the modern electric guitar landscape with both style and substance.
Custom refers to instruments or gear that are specially made or modified to meet a player’s specific preferences and requirements. Custom guitars, amps, or pedals often feature unique designs, upgraded components, or personalised aesthetics that set them apart from standard production models. This category is ideal for musicians looking for one-of-a-kind equipment tailored to their playing style, sound, and look, offering greater attention to detail, craftsmanship, and exclusivity.
Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibrations into an electrical signal, which is then amplified. Unlike acoustic guitars, they rely on amplification for volume and tone shaping, making them highly versatile in genres like rock, blues, jazz, and metal. Electric guitars come in many body styles—solid, semi-hollow, and hollow—and feature different pickup configurations, neck types, and hardware. From smooth clean tones to aggressive distortion, they offer a wide sonic range, making them the backbone of modern guitar music.
