This 13-inch-wide SG Standard weighs just 7.20 lbs. and has a nice, fat nut width of just under 1 11/16 inches and a standard Gibson scale length of 24 3/4 inches. Solid Honduras mahogany body with bevelled edges, one-piece mahogany neck with a medium-to-thin profile, and rosewood fretboard with 22 original jumbo frets and inlaid pearl trapezoid (crown) position markers. Headstock with inlaid pearl "Gibson" logo and pearl crown inlay. Three-layer (black/white/black) plastic bell-shaped truss-rod cover. Individual single-line Kluson Deluxe tuners (stamped on the inside "D-169400") with double-ring tulip-shaped Keystone plastic buttons. Serial number "214918" impressed into the back of the headstock. Two original Gibson patent-number humbucking pickups, each with a rectangular black label ("Patent No 2,737,842") on the underside, with outputs of 7.73k and 7.64k. Original "MR 491" and "MR 490" black pickup rings. Five-layer (black/white/black/white/black) plastic pickguard with six screws. Four controls (two volume, two tone) plus three-way selector switch, all on lower treble bout. The potentiometers are stamped "137 6417" (CTS April 1964). Black plastic bell-shaped knobs with metal tops. ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic retainer bridge with nylon saddles and Gibson "Maestro" Deluxe Vibrola tailpiece with 'walrus-tooth' handle on tubular arm. All hardware nickel-plated. The cherry finish on the body has faded down by just one shade (noticeable only when the pickguard is removed). The back of the neck is slightly faded and there is a miniscule amount of belt buckle scarring on the back of the guitar, some slight finish checking and a few small surface marks on the edges. Otherwise this totally original example is in exceptionally fine (9.00) condition. For a '64 model this guitar has a somewhat unusually thin neck profile - somewhat typical of a '62/63 guitar. Housed in its original Gibson five-latch "Faultless" black hardshell case with orange plush lining (9.00).This example is from arguably the best year of the "original style" SG Standards and has the great advantage of the far superior Gibson "Deluxe Vibrola" as opposed to the clumsy and cumbersome "side-to-side" vibrola that is found on the earlier Standards. It also has the stronger neck joint that was introduced in early 1963."Considering all the Les Paul models as a whole, sales declined in 1960 after a peak in 1959...[and] by 1961 Gibson had decided on a complete re-design of the line in an effort to reactivate this faltering model. The company had started a $400,000 expansion of the factory in Kalamazoo during 1960 which more than doubled the size of the plant by the time it was completed in 1961...One of the first series of new models to benefit from the company's newly expanded production facilities was the completely revised line of Les Paul models. Gibson redesigned the Junior, Standard and Custom models, adopting a new, distinctly modern, sculpted double-cutaway design. The 'Les Paul' name was still used at first, but during 1963 Gibson began to call these new models the SG Junior, the SG Standard and the SG Custom...The transition models -- those produced between 1961 and 1963 -- had the new SG design but the old Les Paul names, and these are now known to collectors and players as SG/Les Paul models...SG-style solidbodies have attracted a number of players over the years, including John Cipollina, Eric Clapton, Tony Iommi, Robbie Krieger, Tony McPhee, Pete Townshend, Angus Young and Frank Zappa" (Tony Bacon, Electric Guitars: The Illustrated Encyclopedia, pp. 134-136).
Phil can make any guitar sound good. Incredible display of knowledge, style, talent, and SERIOUS personality. Go Phil!!!
The sound you get in every single fuckin video ist freaking amazing. over-the-top-no-mud-less-gain-smooth-cool-sharp-rock-fuckin-roll-thing-tone!
Phil, I have to say you are an absolutely amazing guitarist. Your guitar knowledge is comparable to the greats, such as Slash, Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen, and many others.
You have a sense of humor that reminds me so much of my late father, who inspired me to pick up the electric guitar. On my 18th birthday, which is no more than 3 1/2 months away, I'm getting a Gibson Les Paul Traditional in Heritage Cherry Sunburst to honor his memory. Your musical talent shows me what I could do. Thank you.
I like this guy. A true rock artist
“One of his dudes used an SG”.
They ALL played Sg’s, even the bassist!
I love the little lessons thrown in with the guitar review. Thanks, Phil!
He is glad to meet himself
That was an epic "Eighteen" lesson!!! Awsome!!!!
Make NO mistake Brother... This guy IS a Rock Star!
Phil's pics are holy!
Good video, Phil and Frettedamericana. You're a big inspiration for me Phil, I have to keep on learning about guitar. I started reading about different chords some hours after I watched this video, I have to check more out.
Sick video as always, finally giving some SG love! Gibson instruments are so amazing , and it just goes to show you that with the exception of there odd robot guitars and the like that they really stick to what's great. This guitar sound so much like my 61' RI it blew my mind, and made me more proud to own one.
Sweet vid guys, and Phil I completely believe you when you say what you play is inspired by the tone, because we didn't get any AC/DC. Keep on rockin!
He's so excited by everything!
yeah if they make the simpsons movie, with real people phil could be otto
OH YEAH, rock the house down PhilX. Love the SG's. Thanks for the lesson PhilX and FA.
I would love to have a beer with this dude.
@EPICFAILSAM for any info including price and full description on any guitar, please go to our website. thanks...
@gingerhendrix55 Phil never sleeps, he just keeps rocking all the time.
Wanna fly like and eagle to the sea
Fly like and eagle let my spirit carry me..
Seriously man everything you play sounds brilliant .
These videos are really inspirational.
It's obvious Phil has a great knowledge of guitar and music. The time he has put into it shows.
His playing and singing is great and I find his guitar reviews entertaining and informative. You see a lot of characters on UA-cam, but Phil seems real down to earth and not full of himself. Check out the Bon Jovi show where he "Philled" in(sorry, but I couldn't pass it up) for Richie Sambora. He did a great job. And definitely check out his band "The Drills".
Best reviewer/teacher/video I ever saw.
It does not matter if you're the best guitarist in the world, but how much you put into it.
i saw a tonemaster in the corner of a shop in demark street, London!! i was soo tempted to buy it, this urge was of course induced by phil ;):D
Phil really should do some Cream every time he plays a SG or LP also more Zeppelin!!
Thanks for flipping me off at 0:52 Phil. But seriously, I'm a fan of everything you do.
your voice is awesome man!
You're the best Phil!
Was not expected to see a Seal cover in a FA video. Also first time I see Phil X teaching, he's an awesome teacher.
i really like to see this guy reviews because is full of energy
Part 2 is coming!!!! ;) might be a little Angus!
I just watch most of these vids cause I am amazed at how many songs he knows, and how perfectly he plays them... this one I watched cause I have an SG though.
Very good vid as always, Phil! :) Played an exactly like '64 SG standard in London. It was AMAZING! Nice and hot PAF's and sustain for days. I think '64 was a good year for the SG! :P
Damn that's a beautiful SG.
Both look and sound.
This is my favorite guitar EVER!!
Great review, as always, phil. ;)
GREAT Demo.
This guy is really good on guitar.
Oh fuck yes, SG's. Lookin forward to the new vids.
@frettedamericana Dude, i think it makes the vids even more amazing when i can actually learn something from phil x
I want him to be my teacher and guitarplaying would just be funfunfun! Great video!
@LennonDylanBruce This guitar is priced $17,500 but please check out our website for all the photos and full description. Thanks...
I love so much this "creamy" sound old SGs have ! It's just awesome !
@leejames1982 sorry you feel ripped off by this video but if you want to find out all about this Gibson SG, all you have to do is read the description. It tells you everything you want to know about this guitar and then you can listen to this video to hear what this guitar sounds like. That's what these videos are all about - hearing what each guitar sounds like - not an in depth lesson on the guitar. Or, you can call us or email us directly and we'll tell you all about the guitar.
love this guitar
Thanks man! I guess you really do listen to the requests. :)
Great as usual!
I love Phil X. The guy is simply one of the most under rated guitarist and musicians of our time.
ohh man. i just bought a used Epi. G-400 but it shipped to my friend's house because i used his eBay. i can't wait to play it.
i love SGs man.
PHIL X FOREVER! WHOO YEAH!
Phil represents everything that a Disicple of Rock would, because he is of course (:
i love how enthusiastic this guy is compared to all other guitar reviewers who just kinda sit there.. and yeah. lol
MINE'S GOT A HOLE IN IT SO I CAN HOLD ON TO IT!
that's my favorite part...besides the SG and Phil.
I love this guy.
I bought an SG because of this video
@DanMichelFerrisIII DUDE THIS GUY IS A ROCK STAR... WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
my bro right here hes good buds with this awesome guy who owns an awseome guitar store in missasauga but seriously i want to meet you phil x your unreal and have the sickest stage pressence which is where it counts
I bet 90% come here just to watch Phil. The other 10% are really interested on the guitars.
Beats my sg special :-(
keep rocking phil X you inspire me to be a good guitarist... and i think it's workin :-)
Phil X is the Bob Ross of video guitar playing
Shit this guy is awesome, I wish he was my tutor. Nice tone in your fingers by the way.
He is extremely good.....
Phil X rocks! Now I'm starting to think of buying an SG...

This guy born to sell guitars.
Nah, he's just an energetic man.
that neck pickup sounds just sweet. like, so sweet, it could put sugar out of buisness.
just bought my first gibson sg standard =)
i love this guy
Very entertaining man! ;D
@ianschecter course he does - the most amazing band called The Drills
Welcome to the club haha! I doubt they hit the millions of views that they have because we can all afford to buy vintage guitars!
He is amazing.
Loving his shirt
@igorawrofficial He was giving us the finger for about 7 seconds. But when Phil X gives you the middle finger, YOU EMBRACE IT
oh man phil x is just so happy all the time
60 to 72 SG's are the best mass produced axes ever made, including the SG Bodied Les Pauls
I'm soooo gonna subscribe this guy :D
Does anybody else come to Phil X videos for new songs to learn cuz every video he plays a killer tune, like the Steve Miller one in this video. It's a pretty trippy song on the record.
wow He's doing lessons now!
your a sweet player =]
That tonemasters just bitchin, I'd kill for that thing.
Thumbs Up for Gibson SG!
NICE! That guy is AWESOME!
Can you please do a demo of the Angus Young Signature SG ?
It would be great!
This guy know how to show of a guitar!
Thanks!!!
nice guitar, and your funny as hell dood plus you Rip!!!
@PBANDSNOW remind me of TOTO, a great session musician!
he is the craziest men who i've see but only after me
Cool T-shirt Phil
hey Phil! Does anyone know which video phil used a wah pedal? Thanks!
when he says: "i'm going to play this one in B" (or C), does that mean that when he's soloing he's doing it using all the B scales? B major, B minor, B minor pentatonic, etc?
@CCRockit i kind of have to say i agree with you. there are also some guitars perfect in sunburst, but it looks so wrong on others.
although, tony iommis' black SG with the ultra black ebony fingerboard and cross inlays looks pretty fucking cool...
what is the name of the song in the beginning? it sounds great.
@JuanluALF the song is Wipeout, by the Surfaris.
IN PERU THE POEPLE WANT A LIVE VERSION OF BEAUTIFUL APARTMEN!!!! =D
Rock'N Roll man !
these vids are pretty sweet
what's the song at the beginning of the video???
i dont have a twitter but i looked at phils and he said he was goin in to fa today and i would like to hear him play speed king by deep purple if you guys do any strats tommorow that would be awesome.
@frettedamericana aww thanks dusty
