Gibson first approached Barney in 1960, at the zenith of his popularity and then his signature model was introduced in 1961. This example from 1966 is in excellent condition with just small signs of aging and some small dings. Its original pick guard is engraved with the name of "Herb Lang". It plays and sounds great with low action and its original Patent # pickups. The pickups are out of phase in the middle position giving you that perfect T-Bone Walker sound!
OHSC included.
