Description

This 1990 Custom Shop Gibson J-180 is an Everly Brothers-inspired build with a Dove twist. Featuring the classic spurce over maple tonewood combo for a rich, full, strumming sound that has made this guitar a favorite for vocal accompaniment. An early example from Bozeman, MT Gibson plant, this is a custom shop, custom order build as evidenced by the unique appointments and high-quality woods. The grain on the maple back is so well quarter-sawn, with tight grain, that it almost doesn't look like maple. While the colors in custom shop logo on the back of the headstock has faded over time, it does show up clearly under a blacklight (see photos). Here in very good condition, this guitar shows signs of play wear as well as a small dent next to the bridge on the bass side. Replaced Grover tuners with the originals included in the case. Moderate fretwear. Includes the original hardshell Gibson case.

All our gear comes with a 7-day evaluation period. An extra 24 hours is added on for acoustic instruments during the winter season, to allow the contents to reach room temperature before you open the box. If you are not completely satisfied with the instrument, just return it via your preferred common carrier. Also, we do not send out instruments for evaluation without payment in full. *All B-Stock sale items are in working condition, and are sold as is. All B-Stock sales are final. To return an item please give us a call, or email to receive a return authorization.
