This vintage Gibson is in good playable condition with a clean fingerboard and neck, good fretting and fully functional tuners. This model is fitted with a drop-D tuner (adjustable) which functions well. The pickups and wiring appear original, are operational, and it sounds superb. It has been fitted with a set of Fender 8250M Nickel-Plated Taperwound strings (medium, long scale) in 0.045 to 0.110 gauge.

Condition: There are various scuffs, dings and unexceptional road-wear, plus some significant buckle rash on the upper rear of the body (see supplied pics 10, 11 and 12). The neck has no signs of cracks or structural flaws, and is straight (but has some rear dings as per supplied pic #14). Overall great condition for its age and pedigree. The case shows some signs of wear and tears in the tolex covering have been glued in places and touched up with black-it. The case interior is in good condition throughout and the hinges and clasps are fully functional.
