This guitar is a commission sale. If you have a high-end or vintage instrument you’re interested in selling, please contact us.
Here for sale we have a Gibson Songwriter Standard in Gloss Natural. Made in the USA in 2024 this acoustic guitar features a set-neck construction consisting of Rosewood back and sides with Spruce top, Mahogany neck and 20 fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include Mother-of-pearl Parallelogram inlays on the fingerboard, Multi-ply purfling around the top and Gold Grover tuning machines are fitted.
The Mahogany neck sits comfortably in the hand, with the 'Rounded' profile resembling a ‘D’ profile, providing ergonomic thumb positioning in all registers allowing for easy navigation up and down the neck. The Rosewood fretboard feels pleasant under the fingers and provides a smooth surface for the user to explore, along with the 12” radius making bending and vibrato techniques a breeze. The dreadnought design fills the arms, providing a dynamic and responsive playing experience, making the user feel the resonance that this guitar produces.
This guitar has a well-balanced and dynamic tone, producing a warm and rich sound, with a strong and clear midrange. The Solid Spruce top and Traditional Hand-scalloped bracing patterns contribute to the guitar's excellent projection and sustain, producing a bright and crisp high end that is well-articulated, whilst the Rosewood back and sides offer a warm and deep low end that make chords hum and chime.
Please be aware that for international buyers import fees are not included in our postage and packaging cost, this only covers the cost of the guitar being sent to you. Import fees will be charged by Customs upon the guitar's arrival in the recipient country. Due to Brexit, this also applies to EU buyers. We advise checking the total import cost with Customs as this is not information we are able to accurately provide.
