In 2013 Gibson renamed the '61 Reissue to "Standard" and dropped the price without changing the specs! They are basically the same guitar except for the big flat headstock on the 2012 '61 Reissue compared to the smaller headstock on the 2013 Standard. It's only a matter of taste. And money ;-)

This guitar has no cracks, breaks or repairs and looks amazing. It has the lovely small guard pickguard, mahogany body with a nice contour, reflector top hat knobs, '57 Classic PAF Humbucker pickups, Gibson embossed pots, bound neck with trapezoid inlays, Kluson Deluxe tuners, Gibson stoptail and nashville style bridge (API Advanced Plating Inc.) Comes including the original Gibson black SG case with white plush lining, paperwork, warranty card, owners manual and a Gibson guitar strap.

The guitar plays easy with a nice low setup and it really is a bargain! Get your inner Angus out and dance like a duck!
