Description
Here 'tis, your new songwriting friend. Gibson TG-25 'Tenor' Guitar. Tuned C G D A.
Of course, Neko Case makes these things sound so bloody good, and you can hear 'em all over her fab records.
In completely lovely condition, and still with all the great build quality of an early 60s full sized Gibson guitar.
This is not just a guitar, it's an inspiration, and in my opinion a hard thing to put down.
Neck geometry is good, plenty of height in the saddle, and a medium low set up at the moment. Ladder braced, but because it is tuned the way it is, plenty of volume and a very pleasing tone.
I've always wanted one of these, maybe you have too.
These were made in small numbers, around 900 ish all up.
Made in the USA SN 108392.
"Girl with the parking lot eyes
Margaret is the fragments of a name
Her bravery is mistaken for the thrashing in the lake
Of the make-believe monster whose picture was faked
Margaret is the fragments of a name
Her love pours like a fountain Her love steams like rage
Her jaw aches from wanting and she's sick from chlorine
But she'll never be as clean
As the cool side of satin, Pauline" - Neko Case, Margaret vs Pauline
