We were playing mostly do-wop, Dylan and the Byrds and we had jumped on the Beatles bandwagon with everyone else. We sharpened our chops doing awful covers. By the time I discovered Cream, Hendrix, Jeff Beck and other musicians that appealed to me, That Gibson SG Standard served me faithfully as my skills increased. It is another instrument that I regret selling.
