2002 Heritage Super Eagle MADE IN KALAMAZOO

This imposing yet striking guitar is a grand 18" archtop with double humbucker pickups. 

This is a very pretty guitar to behold and you don't see these so often as blondes.

  • Recent fret level and dress. 
  • Brand new bone nut. 
  • Truss rod is great with range in reserve. 
  • Carved Spruce top. 
  • Sublime carved book-matched flame maple back.
  • Tight and very stable hairline crack as shown to the right of the tailpiece. Been glued.
  • Nut is 1-11/16"
  • Weighs 7.3 lbs

Tight and very stable hairline crack as shown to the right of the tailpiece. Been glued.

There are a handful of scratches and minor dings none of which detract in any meaningful way. I have shown some in the photos.

The PU rings have been replaced as the bridge ring had cracked. Originals will be included with sale.

Last photo shows slight finish wear on the neck around the 5th fret, two spots on both sides with the photo showing the bass side which is the most noticeable. Owner must have loved the key of A. I have put some spot finish on them to seal them. Also apparent in the photo are the very typical and obligatory Heritage/Gibson micro-cracks in the binding at the fret ends. All of this cosmetic only.

This a very easy-playing and fun guitar to play. Sweet acoustic voice and lovely round amplified tones with the versatility of a second bridge PU. Would be a supreme combo axe.

Original case which has some external wear but is 100%

Sound clip available upon request to serious buyers

Arrange an appointment to come play this very cool guitar.
