Gibson Custom Shop represents the pinnacle of craftsmanship, quality, and sound excellence, with each instrument celebrating Gibson's legacy through accuracy, authenticity, and meticulous attention to detail.

While George Harrison and Eric Clapton famously played a '64 SG™ Standard, that model year stands out for SGs in general. The clunky side-pull vibrato had been replaced by the dependable Maestro Vibrola, neck profiles had increased in size resembling those of 1959 Les Pauls™, and the SG's balance, playability, and look seemed to come into its own.

For all these reasons, the Gibson Custom Shop proudly presents the newest member of the Historic Reissue family—the 1964 SG Standard Reissue. Along with the Maestro™ Vibrola and chunky neck profile, it features hyper-accurate vintage specs, including original construction methods, a true red aniline dye finish, chemically-recreated plastics, replica electronics, and more. The result is perhaps the best-looking, feeling, and sounding SG Reissue yet.
