Overview 
Up for sale is a stunning 2016 Gibson Custom Shop SG Standard Reissue Made to Measure (M2M) in a classic Ebony finish paired with nickel hardware.

Key Specifications & Features 
• Model: SG Standard Reissue M2M (Made to Measure) 
• Year: April 19, 2016 
• Finish: Ebony (Gloss) 
• Hardware: Nickel 
• Pickups: Gibson Custombuckers (wonderful vintage PAF warmth, clarity, and dynamics) 
• Binding Detail: Features the historically correct Gibson factory trait of paint over the binding (used for solid colors like this Ebony finish rather than a cherry finish). 
• Player's Note on Binding: The paint over the binding actually feels exceptionally smooth and comfortable in the hands while playing. Plus, when fret replacements are needed far down the road, it ensures the neck will look much cleaner than having exposed binding! 
• Weight & Balance: 6.54libs. Exceptionally well-balanced with no neck dive 
• Condition: Pristine, collector-grade overall condition (with one minor, fully transparent cosmetic disclosure noted below) 
Condition & Transparency Disclosure 
The guitar is in pristine condition across the body, neck, and hardware, showing virtually no play wear. 
• Cosmetic Note: There is a tiny ding on the side of the headstock between the high E and B tuners. See pictures (measuring roughly 1/16" x 1/16"). 
• Remediation: It was filled in with Gibson Ebony touch-up paint simply to protect the wood. It is barely noticeable unless scrutinized closely, but is fully disclosed here for complete transparency. 
Apart from this tiny headstock nick, the guitar presents as near-mint. 
Playability & Tone 
• Action & Setup: Professionally dialed in by a master luthier. The action is remarkably low and fast, playing effortlessly up and down the neck with zero fret buzz. 
• Tone: Equipped with genuine Custombuckers, this guitar delivers woody, articulate cleans and rich, singing overdrive tones that capture the true magic of late-50s humbuckers. 
What’s Included 
• Original Gibson Custom Shop Hardshell Case 
• Certificate of Authenticity (COA) and all original case candy/paperwork
