This 1962 Gibson SG reissue was relic'd by Cobra Guitars (this luthier does a lot of work for Robinson). Thankfully it survived a beating the band's warehouse took from Hurricane Sandy because it was stored in an old plastic Gibson case from the '70s and it floated to the top of the pile. Robinson tunes this guitar to open-G and puts a capo on the third fret for "No Speak, No Slave."
