Here's my new Christmas present. (pics)

I normally don't get cash for Christmas, but for some reason this year, I got about $300 in cash. I had been watching this Gibby for a while at a local guitar shop. They had put these on clearance for $350. It's NOS but it's been played some sitting in the store. He had this used Gibson hard shell case sittin in the corner that fit the MM perfect. I gave $35 for it. I know it's not a Tele, but man this little axe can sing. And it's also really fun to play. I'm going to get a LP Jr. pickguard on it. Can't wait to really try it out.

Sort of Gibson's version of an Esquire...

Thats cool!

Add a black or tortise shell pg and it will look greater! LOL

Those also make great slide guitars.

thanks guys. The pickguard will most definitely happen as soon as I can get one ordered. It totally changes the looks of this guitar.

Does anyone know or recognize the age/era of that blue-lined case? It has "Gibson" on the front. Not Gibson USA
