The 1964 SG Standard, in particular, was favored by greats such as Eric Clapton and George Harrison. This model year saw Gibson reverting to the beloved girthy neck shape of late-’50s Les Pauls and replacing the cumbersome side-pull vibrato with the smooth and reliable Maestro Vibrola tailpiece. This masterful re-creation celebrates the SG's storied history, handcrafted by Gibson’s Custom Shop luthiers with meticulous attention to detail, premium tonewoods, and a luscious Murphy Lab-aged finish that exudes the character of a seasoned road warrior.Artfully Aged in Gibson Custom Shop’s Murphy Lab Under the leadership of Master Artisan Tom Murphy, Gibson Custom Shop’s Murphy Lab specializes in crafting artfully aged instruments using cutting-edge tools.
