GibsonMidtown Custom Vintage Sunburst. 2012. A1 condition. Neglible fret wear. Gibson Hard case. Professionally setup by Richard Bartram. The Gibson Midtown Custom Semi-Hollowbody Guitar, Vintage Sunburst by Gibson USA takes all of the legendary ES properties a step further, maximizing each design goal, while adding a rich, deep resonance all its own. With a trimmed-down and more player-friendly body size that still emulates the lines of the ES models, but built with the chambered solid-wood construction, the Midtown Custom truly embodies the optimum marriage of solidbody and archtop. The Midtown Custom uses a solid mahogany, strategically chambered for optimum resonance and capped with a solid carved maple top with traditional f-holes. Its solid mahogany neck is carved to a fast, comfortable '60s-style profile that measures .800" at the 1st fret and .875" at the 12th. The neck is topped with a smooth, hard fingerboard crafted from Richlite a fabricated material composed of cellulose fiber and phenolic resin, which offers the constructional and resonant properties of fine hardwood, but with improved durability, for a superb playing feel. Tidy white binding accentuates the fingerboard, while multi-ply binding graces the body and headstock. The rich, dark fingerboard is enhanced with acrylic block inlays plus split-diamond inlays read more
