Gibson / Century (v.3) / 1955 / " Bittersweet " (Coral) / Guitar

1955 GIBSON Century v.3 - in Coral / 6-string  Lapsteel guitar
One of the most beautiful lapsteels ever, 1955 Gibson Century lapsteel guitar in excellent+ condition and all original except for replaced tuners because of shrinking, (same type - Kluson). The Century v.3 came out in late 1955 and was discontinued in mid-56 when the new "Century Deluxe" came out, so there are not many around. This Century is definately the cleanest we´ve seen so far, it comes in its original brown Geib case with pink lining and hangtag (Stamped "Century" on the back). Both covers are crack-free and unfaded, the original P-90 sounds great! The electronic is untouched, everything works properly and it sounds great! Comes in its orig. brown Geib case w/pink lining, hangtag, caple, some Stevens picks and orig. key.
Techn.details:
  • Hardwood body/-neck - no binding,
  • Original "Bittersweet" (Coral) nitro finish,
  • White plastik fingerboard with 29 frets,
