The mahogany neck, glued with hide glue and a long neck foot, impresses with its comfortable playing characteristics.
Historically correct construction
For the construction of the 1964 SG Standard Maestro Vibrola, the Gibson Custom Shop naturally relies on historically correct manufacturing methods and materials to realize authentic Vintage vibes in sound and feel. Under the thin nitrocellulose finish, which promises free resonance development, a one-piece mahogany body and a glued mahogany neck are used, whereby the gluing with Hide Glue and Long Neck Tenon promises a particularly lively sound character and a long Sustain life. The pleasantly strong "Authentic '64 Medium C" neck profilealso promises comfortable playing characteristics on the 22-fret rosewood fingerboard.
While Gibson Custom Bucker and the hand-wired circuitry deliver authentic vintage sounds for blues and rock, the Maestro Tailpiece produces shimmering vibratos.
Custom bucker with Alnico III magnets
The pickup for the 1964 SG Standard Reissue with Maestro Vibrola is the Gibson Custom Shoptwo Gibson Custombucker. Equipped with Alnico III magnets, the pickups turn out to be authentic replicas of the legendary PAFs from the Golden Era on the guitar amplifier and promise both warm clean sounds with vocal quality and fat overdrive sounds that respond to the playing style with airy dynamics. The pickups are controlled via a hand-wired circuit with high-quality CTS potentiometers and authentic Black Beauty capacitors, which allow particularly harmonic adjustments to the treble via the tone controls.
Kluson tuners with historically correct "Single Line/Double Ring" optics guarantee precise and stable tuning of the '64 SG Standard Reissue guitar.
Authentic Hardware with Maestro Vibrola
Last but not least, Gibson equips the 1964 SG Standard Reissue with Maestro Vibrola with authentic Hardware. The eponymous Maestro Vibrola tailpiece naturally serves as the tailpiece, with which shimmering pitch modulations can be created to tastefully embellish melodies and chords. The classic ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, whose holding pins engage directly in the body wood for optimum sound development, also guarantees optimum adjustment of intonation and string action. Behind the historically correct nylon saddle, Kluson single ring/double line tuners ensure precise and robust tuning of the electric guitar.
