We often refer to guitars as works of art but this custom made SG is precisely that. Made from steel and hewn into the beautiful form of a vintage SG Junior this guitar is the creation of luthier artist Loic Le Pape. It plays & sounds amazing too so join us for a deep dive look!

I AM NOT AN EXPERT. Some things I do know and some things I don't know but think I know and sometimes I say things that are not entirely correct. Once I have said things it's too late to correct them so please check any 'so called facts' with an adult, google, wikipedia, or someone else that knows.
