Gibson's top of the line Super 400 is a powerful 18" wide, solid carved-wood archtop that debuted at the height of the swing era in 1934 and has influenced countless archtop luthiers! This 1939 model has an added Bartolini pickup and replaced tuners, and is in great condition overall. Some finish has chipped away on the neck behind the first and second frets, and there's some buckle rash on the back, but minor wear otherwise. Comes with a non-original hardshell case.
