$2899.99 1971 Gibson J160E, Cherry Sunburst S/N 971034, Pot Date Code 1377158
Excellent Condition with this 1971 Gibson J160E! Shot in Cherry Sunburst, the finish has faded some over its 55 years on the planet and now has a slightly darker appearance, enhancing its legit vintage appearance. Natural checking in the lacquer finish has occurred throughout, adding to its look. This is a 2 owner guitar and has been in the possession of the second owner since 1976, used mainly as a studio guitar during that time. 100% original, there are no breaks or repairs to speak of, only mild play wear. The frets show some wear, but are perfectly playable and offer plenty of years of use before needing replaced. The truss rod works as it should and responds well to adjustment. Other features include: Solid Spruce Top, Laminated Mahogany Side, Solid Mahogany Back, Original Double Ring Kluson Tuners, Original Gibson P90 Pickup w/Original CTS Pots and Sprague Black Beauty Capacitor, Original Gold Reflector Vol/Tone Knobs, Front/Back Bound Body, Bound Neck, Rosewood Fretboard, Bridge & Adjustable Saddle, MOP Trap Fretboard Inlays & Peghead Crown and Gibson Logo.
This guitar is a pleasure to play and is a true survivor from the early Norlin era of Gibson. Sale includes the guitar and what we believe to be the Original Hardshell Case. At the very least, the case is period correct. Beatles fan? Check out John and George playing the J160E on songs like "All My Loving", "I Want To Hold Your Hand" and "Please Please Me", to name only a few.
