The SG that fuels the voice of modern hard rock Jake Kiszka, acclaimed guitarist and founding member of rock ’n’ roll powerhouse Greta Van Fleet, has carved out a signature approach defined by intensity, nuance, and unwavering creative vision. His connection to his treasured 1961 SG™ extends far beyond admiration; it’s a bond shaped through years of exploration. As Jake notes, “The ’61, this particular model, has defined me as a player, and I think I’ve defined it in return.” For decades, the Gibson SG has stood at the centre of rock ’n’ roll’s evolution, favoured by artists who push boundaries and reimagine the genre.
The new Jake Kiszka SG Standard honours that legacy, crafted from mahogany and metal with precision and purpose at Gibson’s Nashville headquarters. This limited-edition instrument pays tribute to the legendary ’61 SG, with its unmistakable double-cutaway silhouette and pronounced bevels that evoke generations of rock storytelling. Its SlimTaper™ neck, carved from mahogany, invites expressive playing along a rosewood fretboard fitted with 22 medium jumbo frets and accented by glowing acrylic trapezoid inlays. A Graph Tech® nut partners with Gibson Vintage Deluxe tuners with keystone buttons to deliver exceptional tuning dependability.
At the other end, the strings ride across an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge for complete control over action and intonation, then anchor into a stop tailpiece concealed beneath a Sideways Vibrola™ cover. The Vibrola tailpiece has been internally modified and secured so it remains decorative rather than functional, mirroring the appearance of Jake’s own beloved 1961 SG, the Beloved, while providing the stability and performance of a fixed tailpiece. Once a tool for experimental bends and shimmering effects, the immobilized Vibrola now serves as a visual homage and a symbol of modern reliability. Jake also opted for subtle updates to the electronics compared to a vintage 1961 SG.
His model features a pair of T-Type humbuckers™, a duo capable of delivering searing highs, articulate clarity, and dynamic punch. Each pickup is paired with independent volume and tone controls, complemented by Orange Drop® tone capacitors. Hand built at the Gibson factory, the Jake Kiszka SG Standard features a Faded Vintage Cherry gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish and ships in a black Modern hardshell case emblazoned with a Jake Kiszka doubloon logo graphic. The guitar arrives with a standard backplate installed, and the case includes a separate hand-signed and stamped Jake Kiszka backplate, along with a custom leather strap enhanced with a metallic coin pendant designed by Jake.
With Greta Van Fleet achieving chart success around the world, Jake Kiszka’s impact on a new wave of players is unmistakable. His Gibson SG has been a constant partner throughout his rise. Now the Jake Kiszka SG Standard offers that same spirit to players everywhere. Available only in limited numbers, this is your chance to make it your own.
