1957 Gibson J-200 "The King of the Flattops". This is a collector grade instrument. The finish is in excellent shape with no major dings, dents, or checking. There was a small pickguard crack that was repaired (near where the pickguard ends at the fretboard). When I bought the guitar the bridge was lifting and it needed a new saddle; I had that professionally repaired as well. The action is good and there is plenty of saddle life left. It has never had a neck reset and does not need one. The guitar is all original except for the saddle. It plays and sounds great. Factory double X braced. Big '57 neck. Comes with the original brown Lifton hard case that is equally clean. Don't miss out, these don't come around in this condition often; it checks all the boxes.
