1940 Gibson HG00 Guitar
(Batch No. 331F) Excellent plus condition, original sunburst finish. 12 fret Gibson small body same as a L00 but set up with a high nut and straight saddle for Hawaiian or slide playing. The bigger body volume really gives more power to the guitar. Has mahogany back and sides, Adirondack spruce top, round neck with a V profile, 1 3/4 inch wide raised nut, flat Brazilian rosewood fretboard and bridge, and a white silkscreened peghead logo. Has conventional guitar frets. It came to me with cheap import tuners so I found a set of 40s openback Klusons that are correct for the guitar and had those installed. No repairs or cracks - this guitar is nice. These are excellent for slide or they make a powerhouse conversion to a conventional Spanish style neck. Comes with the original soft case.
