Description
The Gibson Custom Dove Acoustic-Electric in Alpine White Gloss is built for players who want their acoustic to make a statement before a single note is played. Bold, elegant, and unmistakably Gibson, this limited-edition Dove carries forward a legacy that has long been favored by iconic performers while adding a striking visual identity that sets it apart instantly. For singer-songwriters, stage performers, and players drawn to rich acoustic character with visual flair, this Dove delivers both presence and performance in equal measure.
At the heart of its voice is a classic tonewood pairing; a Sitka spruce top combined with quilted maple back and sides. This combination produces a crisp, articulate response with a tight low end and shimmering highs, making it ideal for strumming, flatpicking, and articulate chord work. The square-shouldered dreadnought body and long 25.5 inch scale length give it a powerful, full-range projection that fills a room with ease. Hand-scalloped X-bracing enhances resonance and dynamic response, allowing the guitar to remain balanced and clear whether played softly or with a heavier attack. Equipped with LR Baggs VTC electronics, this Dove transitions seamlessly from unplugged sessions to live performance, retaining its natural acoustic character when amplified.
The two-piece maple neck is carved into Gibson's Rounded profile, offering a comfortable, substantial feel that supports both rhythm and lead playing. Paired with a rosewood fingerboard, 12 inch radius, and split parallelogram inlays, it provides a smooth and familiar playing surface with a touch of vintage-inspired elegance. The bone nut and saddle contribute to clarity and sustain, while Grover Keystone tuners ensure reliable tuning stability in any setting.
Visually, this Dove is nothing short of stunning. The Alpine White gloss finish creates a bold canvas for the model's signature details, including the intricately engraved dove pickguard and ornate bridge design. Multi-ply binding and refined appointments frame the instrument beautifully, giving it a high-end, vintage-inspired aesthetic that feels both classic and unique. It is a guitar that commands attention on stage while still honoring its heritage.
At Cream City Music, we see this Gibson Dove as a perfect blend of visual artistry and tonal authority. It is built to inspire, built to perform, and built to stand out. For players who want a legendary acoustic with unmistakable character, this Dove truly spreads its wings.
