Gibson Custom Shop 1964 SG Standard Reissue W/ Maestro Vibrola VOS Electric Guitar, Cherry Red
Gibson Custom Shop 1964 SG Standard Reissue W/ Maestro Vibrola VOS, Cherry Red
Regardless of the fact that George Harrison and Eric Clapton rocked a '64 SG Standard, that model year was clearly a standout for SGs in general. The stunning Custom Shop-model Gibson 1964 SG Standard Reissue W/ Maestro Vibrola VOS brings all those vintage qualities back as another member of the Historic Reissue Family — decorated in a gorgeous nitro VOS aniline Cherry Red finish with a Black pickguard and authentic nickel hardware.
With a solid mahogany body, this guitar is a comfortable delight in every form. The traditional '64 SlimTaper C-profile mahogany neck is slightly larger than that of previous years, hosting a perfect Indian rosewood fingerboard on top with twenty-two authentically period-accurate medium-jumbo frets and classic cellulose nitrate trapezoid inlays.
Aside from the hyper-accurate vintage build specs, this guitar is loaded with a pair of Custombucker Alinco III unpotted pickups, wired with CTS 500K audio taper potentiometeres and Black Beauty capacitors. The Maestro Vibrola and ABR-1 bridge allow for a unique playstyle to shine, and are locked with perfect intonation thanks to the Kluson tuning machines. The balance, look and playability of such an SG seem to come into it's own — the Gibson Custom Shop 1964 SG Standard Reissue W/ Maestro Vibrola VOS is perhaps the best guitar you will ever play!
