Jimmy Page, Slash, Alex Lifeson… for six decades, Gibson’s iconic EDS-1275 doubleneck has captured the imagination of rock stars and fans the world over, and its unmistakable silhouette has graced the biggest stages on the planet. Made in 1986, this stellar example was discovered in its original case in the Gibson Vault in Nashville, Tennessee, in New Old Stock condition, with the protective plastic still on its pickguard.

After almost four decades in storage, the guitar’s nitrocellulose finish has begun checking, and there is some discoloration in small areas, along with a small chip in the finish near the heel on the bass side of the 12-string neck. However, it remains a superb example of a Gibson doubleneck from the mid-1980s era and comes complete with its original hardshell case.
