porridge Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 Hello Gibson experts! My Dad has a Gibson guitar which we are trying to identify but with little success. The information we have about the guitar is: It looks like a J-45 type Gibson. On the back of the tuning head there is stamped: Gibson Guitar, Made in the US, 1367 The front of the tuning head has white silkscreen handwriting script which says: Gibson made 1928 - 43. Inside the sound hole there is a small white rectangular label saying: MADE IN US by GIBSON INC KALAMAZOO. MICH. There is no serial number or model name on this label. We'd like to find out how old this guitar is and an insurance value. Any information you can provide would be much appreciated! Polly

Is is possible for you to post a bunch of photos? If you upload them to a photosharing website, you can link them into a post here by using the little icon of a picture, just above: That would be very helpful, as they say a picture is worth a thousand words.....
