AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
The Gibson Dove Original 'Antique Natural' Acoustic Electric Guitar is a true icon, introduced in the early ‘60s and forever linked to one of the most revolutionary decades in popular music history. Known for its flame maple back and sides, the Dove delivers crisp, clear tone with exceptional projection, while the square shoulder body design offers balanced warmth and resonance. The long scale further enhances the guitar's bright, articulate sound, making it a perfect choice for players seeking both clarity and power in their acoustic performance.
Classic Dove details add to the guitar's vintage charm, including a bone nut and saddle, double antiqued multi-ply binding, and nickel Grover Keystone tuners. The Dove truss rod cover and iconic pickguard, featuring an inlaid mother-of-pearl Dove with hand-engraved detailing, further solidify the Dove as a true classic. Whether you're strumming chords or fingerpicking delicate melodies, the Gibson Dove Original offers the ideal combination of beauty, craftsmanship, and exceptional sound.
