Gibson Dove Original Vintage Cherry Sunburst
An icon from the '60s returns with his angelic voice, stunning beauty and authentic details
Born during the tumultuous '60s, this guitar laid the melody for many a revolutionary anthem. Known as much for its bold looks as its beautiful voice, this edition is a meticulous reproduction of the iconic original. Instantly recognizable by its graceful mother of pearl pickguard and bridge, the maple and Sitka spruce Dove™ body with angular shoulder offers a balanced, warm tone control. The hand-scalloped reinforcement provides strong forward projection and the elongated, rounded profile neck feels full in the hand. Hidden beneath the saddle, an LR Baggs® VTC acoustic pickup adds modern, natural amplification to this guitar's historic and graceful voice.
