1984 Gibson Dove Vintage Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar Ebony w/ Case
Up for sale, a 1984 Gibson Dove in excellent condition and in perfect working order, complete with a hardshell case. This Dove was produced in limited quantities to celebrate Gibson’s 90th anniversary, built to vintage spec with a full 1 11/16” nut width and an Ebony nitro lacquer finish. Delivering X-braced square shoulder dreadnought muscle and punch, this Dove features a spruce top, maple back/sides, mahogany neck, and bound rosewood fingerboard. Immediate and lively with tons of projection on tap, the sound is bright yet full, very much emblematic of the tonewood selection and a top that’s had decades to open up and relax. There’s a gutsy vitality and taut snap to the wound strings, with plenty of headroom, and the trebles yield a percussive sparkle. Weighing 4lbs 12oz, this Dove has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 12-53 bronze strings and easy-playing action.
