The 1978 Gibson Dove Custom is a standout vintage acoustic with a bold voice, unmistakable style, and plenty of character. Featuring Maple back and sides with a Sitka Spruce top, it delivers a bright, articulate tone with excellent projection and the balanced response that has made the Dove a favorite for decades. Finished in striking Black, it has been professionally serviced by the team at CVG with a plugged bridge plate and setup, and it plays beautifully. In good condition, it shows honest signs of use with dings, scratches, light belt buckle rash, and minor impressions on the back, adding to the character of this well-loved vintage Gibson. Comes complete with its original hardshell case.
