What We Think

Condition: Used, Very Good

There is something completely mesmerizing about this guitar that I just can't quite lay my finger on - it inspires creativity and fluidity from the moment you pick it up! The clarity and balance make weaving between chords and single-note lines a dream while still having the responsiveness for when you want to lay into the guitar harder. 

Guitar has some pick scratching and buckle rash that's to be expected from a guitar that has been played and loved for 35+ years. Some blemishes in the finish on the side and a ding on the back both of which are pictured.

SP Luthier Notes: Fret dress and setup

About Manufacturer

Today's Gibson electric guitars represent the history as well as the future of the electric guitar. The models whose designs have become classics-the ES-175, ES-335, Flying V, Explorer, Firebird, SGs and Les Pauls-are a testament to Gibson's wide appeal, spanning more than four decades of music styles. Gibson's close relationship with musicians is manifest in endorsement models from King, Atkins and jazz greats Howard Roberts and Herb Ellis, plus new Les Pauls made to the personal specifications of rock stars Jimmy Page and Joe Perry. In 1994, Gibson's Centennial year, the new Nighthawk model won an industry award for design, setting the stage for a second hundred years of Gibson quality and innovation.
