Gibson Acoustic

 
Hello!   Here's a 1965 Gibson J55 acoustic guitar neck with block attached for luthiers.  The neck is straight, the nut & truss rod cover is missing, the frets have very little wear for its age and the truss rod works properly.  There's some playing wear on the fretboards second fret and a little bit on the first, where you'd expect it to be and a few scratches on the back of the neck. There's a small burn mark on the first serial number and just below it  # 309484.
I was told by the original owner that Gibson did this because there was a blemish on the body (the body was later smashed at the airport). Anyway this project is beyond my skills, I got it to turn into an art guitar (please watch the embedded video to see examples of my work and check my other listings if your curious).  Throwing in a new set of Kluson tuners that I got for this project. I'm an artist-in-residence for a non-profit, Sunshine Arts (sunshine-arts.org), where we provide FREE instruction to children in music, art, dance and filmaking (you can see the kids in action in the video 'Got To Rock').  Your bid is deeply appreciated and put to good use. Thanks for taking the time to visit and Good Luck!
