Default 1994 Gibson Roy Smeck Radio Grande

***No longer for sale***Sold Another instead

This is a great guitar for someone looking for the acoustic Jackson Browne sound. I had a lot of Smecks, including a Fairbanks before settling on this one.

I’m just not playing it anymore. For whatever reason, I’m spending my time with the Hogs and Maple, and passing on rosewood.
No pickup.

. Plus shipping. Comes with original Centennial series brown case.

Here is an ad of the same guitar from a previous owner years ago. All issues with the truss rod were taken care of when I got it by DC area Luthier Todd Stock.

I see I forgot to insert the link to the umgf ad. There is a description there.

I know it work, but I don’t have the Lutherie knowledge to explain the problem that was there. (It’s the only one of my guitars however that Todd ever inquired about my willingness to sell ...so I figure it’s fine )

I am a huge Jackson Browne fan, and this was a grail guitar for me at one time. But it should belong with someone who will play it more.

Can’t say I know this guitar and don’t believe I know the seller, but I can speak for Todd Stock. He has worked on all of my guitars and many folks in this area utilize Todd’s great service and expertise. I know of at least a couple of AGF folks who have commissioned Todd to build guitars and they are absolute fantastic. Caring for one here it now and it’s a joy to have here and play for a while. It’s based on the Martin 000 12 fret Norman Blake. All that is to say I have no doubt Todd has this sellers guitar in great order.

Here are some pics of mine, plus one of JB with his Centennial taken at Occupy DC a few years back.

Out of curiosity, would you mind saying what number it is. My first nice guitar was #47. Just seeing if it's my old guitar.

1 and 13/16. Modified V. More substantial than the Jackson Browne signature model.
