Gibson Electric Guitar Classics

Here you’ll find a selection of iconic models that have helped shape music history.

The Gibson Les Paul is one of the most famous electric guitars in the world. Known for its thick, warm tone and long sustain, it is widely used in rock, blues, and hard rock. Its solid mahogany body with a maple top, combined with humbucker pickups, defines its characteristic sound.

The Gibson SG, introduced in the early 1960s as a lighter and more ergonomic alternative to the Les Paul, features a thinner mahogany body, deeper cutaways, and a slightly more aggressive, cutting tone. It is famously associated with Angus Young of AC/DC.

The Gibson Flying V is an iconic model with a futuristic V-shaped design. It offers excellent access to the upper frets and delivers a direct, powerful tone that is especially popular in rock and metal. Its striking shape makes it a true statement on stage.
