Description
What makes this guitar special: This is a dead simple guitar with a whole lot of tone for a single pickup configuration. The 491T humbucker in the bridge has a good amount of tonal dynamic for a single pickup. It’s crunchy with some chime and jangle but still cleans up pretty well with lighter playing. The single volume control is really all you need, as the pickup sounds great as is. The neck plays easy like most Gibsons, the body sports a great Satin Blue nitro finish, and overall, it’s still pretty clean for being used.
Condition: This guitar is in very good condition overall. It does possess various nicks, dings, dents, chips, and scratches, but largely remains clean for a used guitar. The frets have only very light wear and still have a full lifetime of playing left in them. The neck is comfortable and the truss rod is functioning.
Body: Single cutaway slab maple body in Satin Blue finish (nitrocellulose). Single-ply black pickguard. Wrap around stop bar tailpiece. Black top hat knob.
Neck: Medium depth C shape mahogany neck and 12” radius torrified maple fingerboard with white dot inlays. 1 11/16” nut width. 24 1/2 “ scale. Vintage-style Kluson Deluxe tuning machines.
Electronics: Gibson 491T humbucker in the bridge. 1 x volume control.
Weight: 7 lbs 5.7 oz
Playability/Sound: The neck on this guitar is as easy-playing as most Gibsons. The 491T in the bridge is hot and crunchy and takes to aggressive playing exceptionally well, but also cleans up with a lighter touch.
Case: Includes original Gibson gigbag.
