About this listing

1966-1969 Gibson C-1 classical guitar, resurrected from a pitiful pile of broken pieces. The creative work on the sides of the heel was necessary because the neck had been broken off, including part of the ribs at the heel. Rather than try to hide the damage, I chose to decorate the damaged area. There are plenty of repairs, but all add to the patina. Tortoise shell binding, black and gold machines, bone saddle. Sorry, no case, but will come safely bubble wrapped. Please inspect the photos carefully.
