This 2009 VOS edition combines vintage tone and feel with modern reliability, presented in a beautifully aged Vintage Sunburst finish.The Sitka spruce top and flamed maple back and sides give this guitar a bright, clear projection with tight, articulate lows and sparkling highs. It’s incredibly responsive to touch — equally suited to fingerstyle and strumming — with a warm, open midrange that cuts through a mix without ever being harsh.The shorter 24.75" scale makes it effortless to play. The VOS finish adds a subtle vintage patina, giving it that played-in vibe without the wear.A beautifully crafted, sonically rich Gibson acoustic that’s as versatile as it is elegant.Condition Report: Excellent condition. A few very light handling marks only and a few spots of nitro checking. No cracks, repairs, or major blemishes. Frets, hardware, and finish remain in superb shape.Part Exchange Welcome: Part exchange welcome. Video demos are available via our YouTube channel at Squealing Pig Guitars.
