Please help identify this relatively old acoustic?


Recommended Posts

Hello All,

 

I'm a newbie to this forum.

 

I just inherited this Gibson acoustic and I was wondering if anyone can help me identify what model it might be. The serial number that is stamped into the wood on the back of the headstock is 533821, and based on Gibson's Blue Book, I was able to verify it was most likely manufactured in 1969, but unfortunately the book does not give any kind of model information. I was also wondering if anyone would think it was worth restoring, since it's not in the best of shape. Looks like the bridge has already been replaced once before, and it seems like it may need another replacement. There is also a small crack on the back of the headstock approximately behind the nut and also some chipping on the neck along the top side of the fretboard, as well as some random blemishes around the body. I would post more pics, but the size limit on this site is relatively low.

 

Thank you for any help you can offer.

 

-Scott
