1996 Gibson Nighthawk ST3 Fireburst, Good, Soft, $1,599.00

Moe's Guitars, "Our philosophy: If we wouldn't play it, we wouldn't sell it; it's that simple."

Let me start by saying if you are scared off by nicks or dings run now, however if you appreciate a 22 year old Gibson whose integrity is 100% spot on then please do read on.

This instrument is one of two that have I rescued from a local family that fell out of love with playing guitar. With the exception of Gold Strap Locks and a cheap after market case suitable for shipping only the instrument is 100% original.

What we did
Adjust neck
Oil fretboard
Clean and lubricate electronics
Restring
Adjust action
Adjust intonation

The instrument plays without dead spots or buzzing. The frets have tons of life left and the neck is straight and true. Everything works as it should. The instrument has a beautiful flame top and weighs 6 lbs 12 ozs. There is a chip on the head stock and various nicks and dings as pictured, but again the integrity of the instrument is 100% spot on.
