SINCE 1968Still independent
This 1968 Gibson J-50 was acquired from a regular client who'd inherited it from the estate of a friend. From the looks of the guitar, and to hear our client tell it, it's been sitting in a case for a long while (hence its cleanliness). The tone is lovely ~ bright, crisp, and well-defined, with that blended Gibson honk that makes it perfect from strumming rhythm behind a band. Condition: as mentioned, this guitar is very clean. The saddle has been replaced, and one top crack has been repaired -- other that that, there's not much to say! It's been freshly setup in our shop, and needs no further work at this time. Priced with hardshell case. Shipping calculated at checkout for online purchases.
Condition: Vintage. Fully inspected and set up by TME staff before it ships or leaves the showroom.
