This 1997 Gibson Switchmaster is a true Custom Shop masterpiece — a breathtaking example of Gibson’s late-90s craftsmanship. The moment you lay eyes on it, the bookmatched flame maple top, back, sides, and neck jump out at you, shimmering under the light. Multi-layer binding runs throughout the instrument, framing the exquisite woods and adding to its premium aesthetic.
This is the ultimate three-pickup jazz box, capable of delivering a huge tonal palette — from lush, woody warmth to bright, articulate clarity. Once you’ve played a Switchmaster, it’s hard to go back to anything else.
i’d also like to add that The lacquer nitrocellulose finish on the neck has some crazing which can be clearly seen in the photos. This is really common for this period of Gibson Guitars It is purely cosmetic. There is absolutely no structural issues whatsoever The Guitar is 100% sound.
Comes with the case shown.
