A Gibson Chet Atkins CE, made in 1991.

The Chet Atkins CE is a guitar designed by Chet Atkins.
Based on its serial number, this is a 1991 model in a natural finish. It is an electric classical guitar with a spruce top and a solid mahogany body.
It features a rosewood fingerboard and rosewood bridge and is set up for nylon strings.
The volume and tone controls are located on the upper side of the body.

There are numerous dents, scratches, and cracks in the finish throughout the guitar, giving it a vintage look and feel. There is a slight ground hum when connected to an amplifier.
There is a slight scratchy sound when operating the controls.
