Description

One of the coolest acoustic models Gibson ever produced, yet understated, is the Country Western. It's essentially the natural finish equivalent of the Southern Jumbo. This example from 1958 is in extremely clean collectible condition, with only really a strap button to denote. This one also has a rare "stinger" on the back of the headstock. It sounds very loud, dry, and warm; exactly what you want from a slope shoulder body. We are very excited about this one!

Comes in original Lifton HSC with brown flannel lining
