Description Brand: Gibson Dexterity: Right-Handed Model: All American Model 2 String Configuration: 6 String Body Type: Solid Exact Year: 1994 Series: American Vintage Country/Region of Manufacture: United States
Rare 23-year old Gibson All-American Model II (melody maker style) guitar w/ tremolo bridge. All original, Made in USA. 24 frets, two single coil pickups. Used 'gig' condition (belt scratches, pick marring, dings) but plays and sounds incredible. I toured and recorded with this guitar for my band Esquimaux from 2004-2009. In fact, the last time it was set-up was by Steve Albini himself (he recorded Nirvana's In Utero among others) when he recorded our Tiger EP in 2007 at Electrical Audio in Chicago. You can see me defending myself from a bear attack with this guitar in our music video for 'Death Mountain' on YouTube (bear and guitar were unharmed), and you can hear this guitar's finger picking clean tone on the song 'Dosvidanya' on iTunes, Spotify, Pandora, etc.I'm the original owner. This guitar was my high school graduation gift from my mother back in 1994. We drove from Baltimore down to Chuck Levin's near Washington DC. I was hoping for a Gibson SG, but this Model 2 was more in the price range and looked enough like an SG to me with the double cutaway body. The guitar case (included) was older and used at the time and purchased with the guitar. I'm including the case and I'll throw in a nylon guitar strap and some picks, so it will be ready to play as soon as you get it! :)
