This 1965 Gibson SG Standard is in excellent condition for its age, with a recent refret that brings new life to its original electronics and classic feel. It features the slim nut width and neck profile typical of the era—polarizing for some, but ideal for players who appreciate flexibility in their hand. The patent number humbuckers deliver the thick, rich tone you'd expect, with great clarity and punch. The finish remains clean, showing some dings and light wear, and aside from the new frets and nut, the hardware is original. The electronics appear to have been rewired at some point, likely during a pickup swap, but all components are now original and fully functional. A strong example of what makes the mid-’60s SG such a compelling and iconic player—complete with its original hardshell case.
*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
