What is Second Hand?

Product Description

Gibson Custom Shop is the pinnacle of craftsmanship, quality and sonic excellence. Each instrument celebrates Gibson's legacy through accuracy, authenticity, and attention to detail.

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 The clunky side-pull vibrato had been replaced by the dependable Maestro Vibrola. The neck profiles had increased in size, resembling the profile found on 1959 Les Pauls. And the balance, playability and look of the SG seemed to come into its own.

The 1964 SG Standard Reissue. Along with the Maestro Vibrola and chunky neck profile, has all the hyper-accurate vintage specs one could possibly want. Original construction methods, a real red aniline dye finish, chemically recreated plastics, replica electronics, and more. The result is perhaps the best looking, feeling and sounding SG Reissue yet.

This particular Gibson Custom Shop 1964 Reissue SG was built in 2022 and comes with its original hard case, certificate and tags that it came with from the factory. Andertons Guitar Gallery specialists have checked and tested this pre-loved guitar to make sure it is in top form. This guitar features a beautiful light aged Pelham Blue finish to look and feel like an original guitar that’s been aged over the years. It sports a dark Rosewood fingerboard too, which feels silky smooth to play.

This guitar is in good condition with some pick scratches on the scratch plate, as you might expect. There is also a small chip in the finish on the back of the guitar on one of the horns, as well as a couple of very small dings on the back. Otherwise, the guitar is in great shape and sounds fantastic! In short, the damage is cosmetic only and does not affect the playability of the instrument. The frets have very little fret wear and it’s setup with 10-gauge strings.
