Description

The Gibson Custom 1964 SG Standard Maestro is a painstakingly accurate recreation of one of the most celebrated SGs ever produced. This Custom Shop reissue captures the distinctive character feel and sound of the original with remarkable attention to detail. From the Maestro Vibrola and chunky Medium C neck profile to the authentic red aniline dye finish and historically accurate plastics its a remarkably faithful recreation. Finished with Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aging the guitar displays the subtle wear associated with decades of careful use giving it the feel of a cherished original. Constructed from solid mahogany with no weight relief the guitar delivers the resonant midrange singing sustain and lively response that made the SG an icon. A pair of Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups provide warm vintage clarity with articulate highs perfectly suited to blues classic rock and more. The long-tenon neck joint enhances resonance and sustain while the Maestro Vibrola adds smooth vintage-style pitch control. Complete with historically accurate hardware and electronics and a Brown/Pink Lifton reissue case this Gibson Custom SG offers an exceptional vintage-inspired experience.
