    And superior in most ways.

        It's trading off weight for a fragile neck joint. Both are clearly flawed designs by modern standards and both are equally classic.

        Anyway I think the GC list is most popular in terms of recognizably, not actual current sales volume.

          Remember - they stopped making Les Pauls for quite a while. And the SG has some pretty impressive Icons as well...Angus, Iommi, etc.

          Plus, the flat out lower price. No surprise.

            They make a few versions, at a low medium and high price point (The USA being half the Gibby price):

            This one is from Reverb for $650




            Also available in Amber, tobacco-is, charcoal burst, and for under $1k green and blue with a Floyd. And to get the Kiddies hooked....there is a $299 bolt on.
            Oh goody!

            I was there when it happened, so I guess I oughta know.

              If I search "Gibson Les Paul" on eBay (filling in the brand in the search filter to weed out the other brands), I get 8941 listings.

              If I do the same search for "Gibson SG", I get 1973 listings.

              Granted, that's not including all the vintage listings, which are mostly in a separate category, but that's a pretty huge difference.

              The SG is certainly iconic, but Les Pauls are freaking everywhere all the time.

                  Gibson fixed the neck joint when they changed to the 'batwing' body / pickguard in 1966, though some players still prefer the '61-style. I've played both and honestly prefer the batwing.

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

                              It’s a SG GT. They had some great colors.

                                Interesting tailpiece...is it removable with a regular stop bar under it?
