Hanksguns Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Ser# 157XXX Made In USA stamped on. Control bus # 70-027 and 1377317 Has three piece neck without a volute. The I is dotted and the body is three piece with a thin slice about in the middle. I hope this is enough info. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
animalfarm Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 The partial serial number, lack of a Volute on neck, and the 3 piece body (as viewed from SIDE?) have me leaning torward 1971. I believe Gibson started adding the Volutes around 1974... Can't provide more info beyond that. I can, however, provide a link to make you drool, slobber. Just scroll down page for appraisals of a couple of 50s Goldtops - may contain info which you can use.
