This is an absolutely stunning archtop built by prolific Gibson luthier Jim "Hutch" Hutchins and was presented to him in appreciation of his 45 years of working at Gibson. It has a pearl engraved medallion on the back of the headstock reading "Jim Hutchins 45 yrs 1963 - 2008"

The guitar is beautiful looking and sounding, having a spruce top with highly flamed maple back, sides, and neck with an ebony board having abalone inlays. It also has its original mini humbucker and sounds superb when plugged in. It is in excellent condition and is believed to be the last guitar Jim Hutchins built.

Includes its original hard shell case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
