FS 1956 Vintage Gibson Country Western Acoustic

silentactors · #1 10-24-2015, 11:09 AM

This guitar has been my personal guitar for many years now. I am not a dealer. I took these pictures at a music store that I used to work at some time ago. I purchased the guitar from an older gentleman and pretty much left it as is with these exceptions:

I added:

Bone nut (it needed a new nut)
Strap button
Professional installed a K&K Pure Mini Pickup (least invasive passive pickup)

All work was done by a qualified luthier.

The brass saddle was on the guitar when I received it, and I love the way the guitar sounds so I never bothered to change it.

Everything else on the guitar is solid and appears to be original even down to the tuners. The guitar is a true ringer, showing natural play wear as you would expect. Big beautiful tone. Neck set and frets are in great shape. Comes with non original hardshell case. Please email with any questions. I am also willing to chat on the phone with any potential buyers if you like. Feel free to email me as well at: [email protected]

Asking $3400 OBO

I would love a local pickup - but I have shipped many guitars before and feel confident doing so.

Thank you for looking!!

This model is really great. I have a 1959 Country Western.
I recommend them.
