Seller's description

Very well-played Gibson J-160E. Uncommon (and in my opinion), substantially better sounding 'X' braced model. Unplugged this one sounds like a good 90's J-45, whereas the more typically you'll find J-160E's that have really flat 60's style necks and ladder bracing, which makes them sound pretty muted acoutically. Has most definitely seen a few stages in its time. A couple of repaired cracks to sides and top. Plenty of wear and tear to the lacquer. The guitar has opened beautifully with the amount of playtime its seen. Very nice, substantial-feeling neck. Bridge saddle is on the lower side with an action at the 12th fret of 3mm (bass), 2.75mm (treble). Serial number 91921020. Includes the original Gibson hard case.
