Dave Grohl’s Gibson SG Custom (White)

Brand: Gibson
Model: SG

Dave was seen using this guitar around 1997, most notably at the Bizarre Festival (photo below), and on the television show “Later… with Jools Holland”.

Unfortunately, not much is known about this guitar. From the looks of it, it’s an older SG Custom model, with three pickups, and a stop-tail bridge. Based on the black knobs, and the black pickguard, it’s most likely a 70s model.

But, as far as where Dave got it, and where it disappeared in the late 90s, that’s completely a mystery.
