Up for sale is a 1966 Gibson B-45 12-String. Introduced in 1961, this was Gibson's first production model 12-string acoustic. This guitar was a staple for the folk and rock scene of the 60's. This one is fully open, has amazing projection, and it jangles in all the best ways. Cosmetically this one has all the vibe that you would expect of an instrument of its age featuring scattered finish checking and a handful of dings. This one shows no signs of cracks or repairs and there is minimal dipping in the top thanks to the trapeze tailpiece. The frets are pretty low and will need to be replaced some time in its future but it still plays really great as it is. Weight: 5lbs. 1oz.
This fine instrument comes to you freshly setup from our in house tech with its original hardshell case.
NOTE TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS:
We want you to be happy with your purchase and we try to represent the condition of all used and vintage guitars as accurately as possible in our listings. Every used guitar shows some signs of play wear and vintage models even more so. We call out all areas of damage or unusual wear, and describe the overall condition based upon what is "normal" for the age of the instrument. Expect to see minor dings, finish checking, or other evidence of normal use and aging which may not be captured by photography or explicitly mentioned in the listing.
We recognize that everyone has their own personal standard of what constitutes acceptable wear and tear. If play wear is especially critical for you, please contact us at the Shop for a complete in-hand description and to answer any questions you may have. Your satisfaction is of paramount importance to us.
