Product Description

Regardless of the fact that George Harrison and Eric Clapton rocked '64 SG Standards, that model year was clearly a standout for SGs in general. The clunky side-pull vibrato had been replaced by the dependable Maestro Vibrola, and the neck profiles had increased in size — resembling the shape found on 1959 Les Pauls. And the balance, playability and look of the SG seemed to come into its own.

For all those reasons, the Gibson Custom Shop is proud to present the 1964 SG Standard Reissue. Along with the Maestro Vibrola and chunky neck profile, it has all the hyper-accurate vintage specs one could possibly want — original construction methods, chemically-recreated plastics, replica electronics and much more. The result is perhaps the best looking, feeling and sounding SG Reissue yet!

The Murphy Lab 'Ultra Light Aged' finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of subtle playing wear — giving it the unique character, vibe and feel of an original example from Gibson's "Golden Era".
