Description

Super cool Dove that straddles the line between 60s and 70s Gibson production. I have made a promise to myself and others to not reference the Rolling Stones acoustic sound in descriptions anymore, so I won't...but shoot, if the shoe fits, then you best wear it. Delightfully bright cherry red finish on the back and sides, good condition all over. Super complex and detailed Dove smiling at you from the pickguard, just like an old friend. Hard to get those fine inlays in this era..as block inlays were very much flavour of the decade. Guitar is in super nice nick all over, saddle is low, but the action is good at the moment. If it needs a neck reset in the future, consider it an investment because this is a very nice sounding bird. Frets are classic 70s Gibson low, flat and speedy, just like the time period they came from. I would own the f**k out of this thing. Shoot, enough of my yakking, come in and play the sucker. Made in the USA, SN tricky to read, but we figure 70-72. Comes with a splendid vintage Yamaha hardcase. "If something doesn't sound right, just brush on an acoustic guitar and see what happens. If you're recording a band, it fills the air between the cymbals and all the electric instruments. It's like a wash in painting, just a magical thing" - Keith Richards.
