Nice. Classic. Always like the half-pickguard look (as opposed to the batwing version on my SG)

Yehh \m/. What makes it a limited and different from previous '61 reissues?
I personally prefer the ABR loaded ones, they tend to have a lower neck angle, bit more comfortable for picking hand. Red is classic but they look amazing in black.
Back in my salad days, I was gassing bad for a '61 reissue. A store I used to buy strings at had a red one and it was hanging at the top of the wall – literally and figuratively out of reach.

I never got the chance to try one of these guitars. They're always out of reach at Guitar Center when I go and not a employee in sight....

I like the Brian May SG style, so I will mod. My '61 RI : white pickguard and white covers, vintage repro knobs, brass saddles, M-69 pickup rings,
The SG sound very consistant, killer '57 Classic, and slim taper neck profile is a dream. Wait and see how the SG will look like ...

The 'silver fox' finish is indeed sweet. Gonna pop with some white plastics.
Right? And when you're a kid, they'd just give you the stink-eye because they'd think you'd break it if they let you have a go on it *eye roll*.
A family friend owned an original Junior (early one w/ 'Les Paul' logo) which I got to try. Neck wasn't super thin either like some from that period. Just a cool guitar and barely restrained P90.
I think the VOS ones are nice too, aside from being mega bucks.

Nice one. Didn't you have a white truss cover also?
I did something similar with mine a while back:
