Not only because of the fact that George Harrison and Eric Clapton were playing a 64 SG Standard, Gibson called the SG's this year's outstanding. The chunky sideway vibrato had been replaced by the more reliable Maestro Vibrola. The neck profile had increased in format and now resembled the profile of the 59er Les Paul.
Here is an excellent reissue of this model from the Gibson Custom Shop with all the outstanding construction methods that ensure the great quality of the current models. The experienced luthiers from Gibson have accurately modeled the old models down to the last detail. The wood quality is impressive and is based on the really best originals. The aniline finish, the reworked aging of the plastic parts and the perfect replica of a good PAF, the capacitors and the circuitry make this reissue a dream for any fan!
