| Cosmetic Condition: | This vintage Gibson guitar has aged well and is in good condition. The finish is glossy with light scratches and some shallow dings and dents scattered throughout. The back of the body shows some light buckle rash. The back of the neck is well worn, with a spot of finish chipping near the heel and scuffs and dings throughout. The neck shows a repaired break with dowels near the volute; this is structurally stable and will not affect playability. The metal hardware is lightly tarnished with age. |
| Serial Number: | 051618 |
| Tech Notes: | The guitar plays well with low action and optimal neck relief. The frets are medium with light play wear. The serial number dates to 1973. |
