Description

Likely the finest guitar that Gibson made in the 1970s, this 1973 Gibson Johnny Smith is in excellent condition and boasts expert design and craftsmanship. This was a very high end model for the time and it was lovingly cared for all of these years. A more recent refret and bone nut help this play well. Comes in modern HSC.
