Description

A fine piece of Gibson history! The Style U was first produced in 1902 and was the most expensive model in the Gibson lineup. This unique design features a standard 6 string neck with the addition of 10 sub-bass strings. The Style U shares a number of features with other high-end Gibson models, including a carved Spruce top, oval soundhole, and a scroll on the upper bout. This particular is in excellent condition for its age and comes with the original Hard Case.
