Its either a 1967 or 1969 at least that is what Gibson says. I thought I had seen somewhere that it was a 1968. But Gibson says it cant be according to there records. Joel was the luthier. The top and shouder was crushed when I bought it at auction. My motto has been always sell a guitar in better shape than you bought it. So when I saw this one I knew it could be a fun guitar. Just felt like I would rather spend the money and have it fixed than have it piched. I will never get back the money but the first guitar I bought as a teen was a 12 string so I do like them. From Joels notes: Restoration included a new top with 5/16” tapered bracing and maple bridge plate along with replacement bridge. Nitrocellulose,sunburst finish. Entire body was shot with nitrocellulose lacquer and aged. Original pick guard. Neck was reset. Geometry is spot on. I have a Martin D28 among small collection. Enjoy that guitar too. but it hasnt been plekked or improved by a luthier so it has potential. I will see if I can find my broken picture

New bridge. Thanks. Assumed b45 but wasn’t sure.

Have several guitars but only one Gibson right now. Almost sold it but I have spent more than I would ever get back and it sounds great. Not sure what model it is though. Maybe someone here can help. Rebuilt by Whitehead luthier. New bracing and top. Sound is fantastic. I am reducing my collection and this is the 12 I will be keeping.
