Greetings,
Here is a fair and rare relic from Gibson's top shelf
She's a players piece with vibe aplenty!
At 50+ years its in great shape, there are restorations and back and sides refinished to a high standard
Good things about this guitar
∞ This is a nice, rare, all solid wood 1974 Gibson SJ Deluxe
∞ Professionally restored (six years ago) and supplied with a fresh setup made prior to shipping
∞ Plays very well as is, with a medium action around 3.5mm @ 12th (enough adjustment room to get the action to 2.5mm)
∞ Tone is relatively dark as with Gibson from this era, best suited to flatpicking styles
∞ Rather snazzy blue plush lined USA 1970's case included
Things you would want to consider before buying...
∞ There are some natural cosmetic weatherings as pictured, overall appearance very good to excellent for age
∞ Some tight crack repairs to back and sides as pictured, these have been professionally attended to and refinished (with nitro)
We sold this guitar to a reliable customer around six years ago, they are now asking us to find a new buyer as the guitar doesn't get played and has only seen light use since the sale.
So now its back here for a light setup and over to you....
Not easy to find on these shores, so don't miss!
