1980 Gibson Sonex-180 Deluxe Black

1980 Gibson Sonex-180 Deluxe Black Solid Body Electric Guitar, Serial #83020618. The 1980 Gibson Sonex, cloaked in its original black, is a testament to a groundbreaking era for Gibson. This model, launched as a cost-effective instrument, flaunted a 'Resonwood' composite body, indicative of Gibson's innovative streak during financially turbulent times. Though it bears the marks of earnest play with a non-original pickguard and a stripped finish on the neck's back, these features narrate a tale of the guitar's journey and its intimate interactions with musicians. Weighing a solid 9lbs 9oz, it possesses the substantial heft characteristic of Gibson's creations, promising a resonant sustain and rich tone. 9.9lbs. Gigbag included. Condition: Fair.
