Gibson Melody Maker Vintage Sunburst 2007 Electric Guitar


Here for sale we have a Gibson Melody Maker in Vintage Sunburst finish. Built in the USA in 2007 this guitar features a set-neck construction comprising a Mahogany body, Mahogany neck and 22 fret Rosewood fingerboard. This instrument is fitted with an adjustable wraparound bridge and a set of Gibson Deluxe tuning machines. The pickup installed is a Gibson Single-coilwhich is wired to a master volume and master tone control. 


The Mahogany neck plays very well, with the Rounded profile sitting very comfortably in the hand and providing a smooth and responsive playing experience in all registers. The Satin finish to the rear of the neck is very pleasant to the touch, and assists with smooth transitions up and down the neck, whilst the traditional 12" fingerboard radius feels as flat and consistent as ever, offering comfortable playability right the way up the neck. The single body cutaway aids in access to the higher frets, whilst the lightweight body design makes longer durations of playing a breeze.



The solitary Gibson Single-Coil pickup installed in this guitar delivers a raw and throaty tone, with a warm low end and driving midrange that is complimented well by crisp and cutting highs. When turning the tone control down the pickup produces a roundness not dissimilar to a neck pickup which is perfect for solo tones, whilst adjusting the tone control up the brightness of the pickup will put your rhythm playing front and centre in the mix. The pickup is fantastic for pushing the front end of an amplifier, whilst offering excellent dynamic control. The simple control layout is not intrusive to the playing experience and offers comprehensive control of your tone. The volume and tone pots are highly interactive, responding very well to subtle changes.
