Description
This 1980 Gibson Howard Roberts Fusion Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar is in very good cosmetic shape with normal wear one would expect with a vintage instrument! In excellent playing condition! Our luthiers just performed a full stainless steel refret and installed a new bridge and hand crafted bone nut! All other components appear to be original. Naturally reliced, it shows finish blemishes throughout, but these imperfections are cosmetic in nature only and do not affect the functionality of the instrument. Very structurally sound! Neck is straight as an arrow and frets show no wear. Aesthetically pleasing with its cool, road worn vibe – tons of mojo! Looks, plays and sounds fantastic! Original hardshell case shows light, normal wear and is 100% functional.
