Description

What makes this guitar special:  100% original & recently acquired from the original owner who kept the guitar in excellent condition over the years.  Beautiful maple figuring offset by a very attractive tobacco sunburst finish.  Smooth comfortable neck coupled with a pair of tasty humbuckers that deliver rich, creamy tones.  Professionally set up by our own luthier, so it plays & sounds fantastic!

Cosmetic Condition:  Excellent condition & very clean with only mild play wear - a few minor nicks & dings; light surface scratches.  The guitar is absolute gorgeous for its age.

Neck:  Slender profile maple neck with nicely aged cream binding & black side-dots.  Ebony fingerboard with mother of pearl block inlays.  Frets are in great shape with very little wear & plenty of life in them.  Gibson tuners with built-in string winders are in perfect working condition.  1 11/16" brass nut; 24 3/4" scale length.  Neck is straight & truss rod is in perfect working condition.

Body:  Double-bound, semi-hollow maple body with dual F-holes.  TP-6 tailpiece with Tune-O-Matic bridge & gold hardware.  5-ply black pickguard is in great shape with some pick wear, but no cracks.  Guitar weighs 9 lbs 7.1 oz.

Pickups:  Gibson black bottom humbuckers both date to '81.  Bridge - 15.12K ohms; Neck - 15.39K ohms.  Dual volume & tone controls with black speed knobs.  3-way pickup selector switch; 2-way coil splitter toggle.  All electronics are in perfect working condition.

Case:  Original hardshell case included - also in excellent condition, although the bottom latch is missing.
