BLUESDAY! 1961 Les Paul SG Standard 'The Fool'

http://www.frettedamericana.com/produ... This 'unique' guitar is a near exact replica of Eric Clapton's famous psychedelic 1963 SG Standard. It is an original mid-1961 Gibson SG Standard that has been specially hand-painted by R. Daskam. Thirteen inch wide, 1 3/8 inch thick, solid Honduras mahogany body with beveled edges weighing just 7.50 lbs. One-piece mahogany neck with a nice, fat nut width of just over 1 11/16 inches, a standard Gibson scale length of 24 3/4 inches and a very fast thin-to-medium profile. Back and front of headstock hand-painted. On the back of the headstock is a small rectangular window displaying the original serial number. Two-layer black over white plastic truss-rod cover with "Les Paul" engraved in white, secured by two screws. Mid-sixties, individual Grover Roto-Matic tuners with half-moon metal buttons. Single-bound Brazilian rosewood fretboard with 22 jumbo frets (re-fretted) and inlaid pearl trapezoid position markers. Original five-layer, black over white plastic pickguard with five screws (now painted "The Fool"). Two original early "patent number" pickups (covers removed) with outputs of 7.88k and 7.18k. The original black plastic pickup "rings" are stamped on the underside "MR 491" and "M-69 7" (neck pickup), and "MR 490" and "M-69 8" (bridge pickup). Inside the neck pickup cavity is a small white label with "M.J.K / 2003" written in ink. The inside the bridge pickup cavity is signed in ink "R. Daskam / #6". The potentiometers are all stamped "134 61 03" (Centralab, January 1961). Four controls (two volume, two tone) plus three-way selector switch on lower treble bout. Original black plastic bell-shaped knobs with metal tops. A wonderful example of Rick Daskam's artistic genius on an original 1961 Gibson Les Paul SG Standard. Housed in the original Gibson five-latch, shaped black hardshell case with orange plush lining (9.00). As per the specifications of the original guitar, which was given by Eric Clapton to George Harrison, who then gave it to Todd Rundgren in 1974, the following changes have been made: the tuners have been replaced with mid-sixties chrome-plated Grover Roto-Matic tuners with half-moon metal buttons. And now for the best part... the guitar has been hand-painted with a brush exactly like the original. It was painstakingly researched from every angle before setting out to create the ultimate SG ''Fool'' reproduction. This guitar is as close to the original as you are going to find, period. Every inch of this guitar was hand-painted by artist Rick Daskam, and then 'clear-coated' to protect the artwork. We took detailed photographs of this guitar before the 'Fool' paint job and we instructed the artist to leave the original serial number "209XX" (ca. June 1961) showing through a small rectangular 'window' on the back of the headstock. Simply amazing…
