The Historic SG Standard Bohemian was a limited run model produced in 2018. Only 20 of each color were produced. The biggest differences from a regular Historic Standard are the Super '74 humbuckers, Grover tuners, unique finishes and Corian nut. Unlike most Historic SG Standards, this model does not use an amber tinted clearcoat to give the inlays and binding a slightly aged look.
