📍 Houston, TX | 📦 Worldwide Shipping | 💬 Se habla Español


This is an absolute gem for the serious Gibson collector or singer-songwriter looking for a top-tier dreadnought. Here we have a Gibson Custom Shop Dove reissue from 2012, faithfully recreating the iconic mid-60s square-shoulder Dove, with all the tone, aesthetics, and craftsmanship you’d expect from Gibson’s elite luthiers.

Finished in a stunning Vintage Cherry Sunburst, this Dove features the hallmark long scale maple back & sides, solid Sitka spruce top, and that legendary dove-inlaid pickguard that screams heritage. The tone is articulate, rich, and bold — a standout for both strumming and fingerpicking.

Collector’s Grade condition — near mint, no cracks, no breaks, no repairs, and kept in a smoke-free, humidity-controlled environment. Comes with original hardshell case and case candy.
