A Gibson Classic that sat in a closet for the past 30 years. Built in 1974 in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Fantastic condition with no more than hairline scuffs. I restrung the mandolin and the neck is perfectly straight and the tuners still are functional and hold tune very well. It belonged to a mature collector and was cared for very well.  Minimal fret wear and a perfect-condition head-stock nut, she plays great!
