The Gibson SG actually began life in 1961 as the "new and improved" Les Paul. However, Les was not particularly fond of the design which featured a thinner mahogany body with beveled edges and pointed horns, so the guitar eventually got a new name: The SG, which stood for "Solid Guitar."

Most SGs were finished in Cherry or Wine Red, which was all the rage in the '60s, however, some were produced in either solid black (Ebony) or an off-white. The original SG Special was a mid-level instrument that delivered all the features most guitarists wanted in terms of playability and sound, but without having to take on a second job to pay for it. Today's SG Special actually has a few of the features of the pricier... Less

The only major change to the Les Paul Standard in 1959 was the addition of wider, fatter, "jumbo" frets, which facilitated more dramatic bends.

This moment in history marked the beginning of the idealization of the '59 Les Paul as the Holy Grail of guitars in the minds of professionals, collectors, and weekend warriors.
