http://www.frettedamericana.com/gibson_melody_maker_1966-d-505-0.html

This extremely rare Pelham Blue Melody Maker weighs just 6.50 lbs. and has a nut width of 1 9/16 inches and a standard Gibson scale length of 24 3/4 inches. Solid mahogany body, medium profile one-piece mahogany neck, and rosewood fretboard with 22 jumbo frets and inlaid pearl dot position markers. Headstock with gold silk-screened "Gibson" logo. Closed-back dual-line Kluson Deluxe strip tuners with white plastic oval buttons. Serial number ("900231") stamped on the back of the headstock. One hot Melody Maker pickup (white plastic-covered single-coil pickup without adjustable poles) with an output of 6.17k. Single-layer white plastic pickguard with ten screws. Two controls (one volume, one tone) on the lower treble bout. Black plastic bell-shaped knobs with metal tops. The pots are stamped: "137 65XX" (CTS 1965 [month obscured by solder]). Stud wrap-around bridge/tailpiece with pre-set intonation and Maestro vibrato tailpiece. Apart from a few very small marks on the sides of the guitar, a small surface chip on the back of the neck behind the 10th fret, a tiny amount of finish checking, and the bare minimum of fading to green, this rare Pelham Blue Melody Maker is in exceptionally fine (9.00) condition. Housed in the original Gibson black softshell case with brown velvet lining (8.75).

@Wooodstock69 I've never owned or played a SG MM that does not have a high action, the one I have now is the best I've ever come across , the bodies are thin so it was difficult to build a neck angle that enables a low action. By the way Phil X plays above the 12 fret, I mean he hardy does and when he does it hs not his normal super fast shit, this one is the same.
