About this listing
Weight: 6.38lbsA nice, clean example of a late-60's Melody Maker D, showing all the hallmarks you'd expect of a vintage Gibson. The original nitrocellulose lacquer has checked and started to yellow - turning the original Pelham Blue finish to a green hue. Rare to see these with natural headstock. The factory Vibrola arm not only looks cool, but stays in tune well too. A duo of Gibson single coil pickups have good output and showcases the open tone the Melody Maker offers. The original CTS pots date to 1966. The original frets are getting low and show some pitting, however the guitar plays cleanly across the neck and intonates correctly.

At some point, the holes were reamed out for larger shafts. The Vibrola Arm tip appears to be later. Supplied with a non-original black case.
