Gibson / J180 Everly Brothers / 1987 / Guitar

All you have to do is dream and you might be the next owner of this very rare Gibson J-180 Everly Brothers Reissue from 1987. This legendary flattop with it's signature double pickguard still to this day manages to turn heads with it's unique looks and striking sound. But not only the Everly Brothers were in love with this instrument, there is a long list of world famous artists who made an appearance with a J-180 Everly Brothers which includes names like Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, Neil Diamond, Cat Stevens, Roger Daltrey and even Madonna. Although not as rare as the vintage original Everly Brothers model, you won't  see this 1987 Reissue appear for sale online very often. The features are essentially the same as the vinage original though; solid maple back and sides matched to a Sitka spruce top, piano black finish with creme bindings, signature double oversized tortoise pickguards, 20-fret mahogany set neck with rosewood fretboard and pearl "star" position markers and single pearl star headstock inlay. This instrument has seen its fair share of stages in the past and there are signs of use and playwear to match. The side has one small ding/crack, the back of the headstock is missing some finish (probably due to a sticker of some sorts), the trussrod cover was replaced and two small holes have been filled in where the controls used to be located. These controls were part of the built in pickup which has now been removed leaving only a wire and an output jack in place. Included is a period correct case.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
