Special / Sale Price - 1924 Gibson A-2ZLoar Era Gem!
.
Phenomenal snakehead that demonstrates precisely why the A-2Z is the most coveted oval hole model. This is one classy vintage Gibson with remarkable sound.
Features include; Wide, straight grained Spruce top, nicely figured Birch back and rims, Blonde finished top, brown back and rims, 2-ply bindings on top, single ply binding on back and fretboard and pearl "The Gibson" headstock inlay.
This instrument is nearly 100% original with lone exceptions being a replacement tailpeice cover from a recent F-5L and bridge top. Bridge base is original and original bridge top is included. Original tortoise pick guard and tuning gears are in remarkable condition.
Excellent-plus overall condition. No cracks anywhere, repaired or otherwise. No top sinkage.
Top has some scratches and dings. Back and rims are very clean with light scuffs and faint scratching only.
Incredible sound. The very best oval hole we've played, bar none. Dry, punchy and quite loud with a strong chop. Excellent playability with medium-low action.
We have this vintage Gibson on Consignment for a friend who bought it in 2000, from the family of the original owner from 1924. After the original owners death, this instrument was literally kept in a closet for 40 years.
