This is a finely crafted instrument. It was the top of the line for Gibson ukuleles.

My guess is it was made between 1925 and 1930.

It is in excellent condition, it plays great and sounds wonderful.

The finish is quite glossy, but not as shiny as it appears in the photos. I don’t know if it is the original varnish or if it has been re-varnished. There are various small marks and scratches. PLEASE SEE PHOTOS.

Feel free to request more photos.

There is one small ultra fine mark on the back that looks like it might be the beginning of a crack but does not seem to go through to the inside. It could just be a slight scratch but I am not sure.

The frets and neck are so finely made and finished it is a pleasure to play. This instrument has a very clear and sweet tone.

This comes with a nice customized hard case.

Please contact for more photos and info.

PRICE:$1,200 (includes case + shipping within N. America)

I will entertain offers.

It looks lovely. Those old Gibsons are lovely, well made and great playing/sounding instruments.

Good luck with the sale.

Looks like it was over-sprayed at some point in it's life. Nice instrument. Good luck with the saie.
