– For your consideration is this vintage 1967 Gibson J-160E acoustic electric guitar.
– This 100% all original example, serial number 062880, is a no-issues specimen with typical consistent playing wear.
– Quite interestingly, this guitar was purchased alongside several others from the Burchette brothers estate: this one having been owned by Wilburn Burchette.
– While the J-160E appears to be an electric J-45: it is not the case. The J-160E features; a 3-ply laminated spruce top, a bound rosewood fingerboard trapezoid inlays, a P-90 single-coil pickup with volume and tone controls
– This guitar was recently set up with Pyramid flatwound strings. It plays great and sounds good both acoustically and when plugged in. It has been seriously played, so there is quite a bit of fret wear. However, there is minimal buckle rash, pick wear, and general wear & tear considering the hours of enjoyment this guitar has experienced. Lots of weather checking and handsome patina, but no evidence of abuse.
– No cracks, no breaks, no repairs: absolutely no structural issues whatsoever. Retains all original finish with no touch-ups or overspray.
– Neck measurements: 1.570″ nut width, .825″ depth at 1st fret, 1.00″ depth at 12th fret
