Excellent condition (I would like to say mint because that is my opinion, but I will stick with excellent just in case) with Gibson case, original paperwork , certificate of authenticity, cable, all other paperwork, and warranty card.
This guitar is just gorgeous, and it looks darn near unplayed and it has no nicks, dings or any signs of wear or even playwear at all. The only thing interesting I noticed is that it almost looks like it has some minor overspray from the neck to the binding, but I am sure that it is factory. The person I bought it from bought it for himself on his 50th Birthday in 2006 . We thought from the serial number it was a 2002 but, couldn’t verify that for sure. We have also been told recently by others that it is a 2005, so it’s likely the guitar was made in 2005, then purchased by the original owner in 2006 which would be in-line with his story.
This guitar has the big chunlky neck and this is the plain top version in Cherry Sunburst.
Weight – 9 pounds, 5.91 ounces
Serial Number – 8-5869
Here is some info from the Gibson archives that I THINK is correct, but use the photos for your own decision:
- Vintage-style, vintage-profile fret wire
- Historically accurate thin fingerboard binding that’s only .040-inch thick (which contributes greatly to the comfortable, vintage-feeling, “rolled” fingerboard edges)
- Historically accurate carved arch on the guitars’ maple tops
- Correct height of the binding in the cutaway
- Accurately sized back control pocket route
- Historically accurate 1/2-inch wire channel from toggle switch to control pocket
- 5/8-inch heel with accurate heel shape
- Correct distance between pickups
- Historically accurate bridge, tailpiece, and control holes
- Correctly tapered headstock with tuner holes in a straight line (rather than following the headstock edge)
- 3/8-inch back-edge radius
