Description
What makes this guitar special? This is easily one of the most naturally resonant guitars Gibson has produced in the last few years and also features a killer look to boot. The figuring in the top and back is absolutely fantastic with large psychedelic swirls gracing just about every inch of visible space, all under a classic hue of Sixties Cherry. Nickel P-90 covers and hardware give it a bit of extra shine while the cream binding on the body and neck add some contrast to the warmth of its color scheme. The pickups sound awesome across the board and have a ton of classic P-90 chime, but with a little extra character in the mid-range. Its body is incredibly light and well-balanced, and thanks to its construction and lacquer finish, is also exceptionally resonant. In addition, this guitar is super clean and our techs have given it a great setup so it plays beautifully.
Condition: This guitar is in excellent condition overall. It does show a few light surface scratches and a small ding here or there, but is still incredibly clean and still looks fantastic.
