Reward Broke sorry!
Description I owned this guitar for over 10 years and I played the heck out of it. The paint was worn off of the bottom of the strings where my fingers were usually pegged and also from my picking. I broke the headstock off and de-strung it and glued it back on so that should be visible as well. The pickups are not stock. Originally they were both single coil but I replaced the bridge with a Jeff Beck sides by sides hum-bucker and the neck is an Yngwei Malmstein stacked hum-bucker, both in single coil spacing. It had 2 chrome after market knobs and a Gibson vibrola vibrato bar. It is a very unique guitar as only about 2000 of them were made. I also installed a trem-stabilizer in the string pocket on the back. 1996 Gibson All American II serial #91986527 Made in the USA in Nashville Tennesee on July 16th, 1996 which was a Tuesday and was the 27th instrument date stamped on that day. Paint code is cherry burst. The body and neck were made from mahagany while the fretboard is rosewood. The neck has 24 frets and the body is a double cutaway. Guitar came with 2 single coil pickups, a selector switch a single volume and a single tone control. The guitar was equipped with chrome plated hardware and has a stratocaster type tremelo system called a "Gibson Vibrola" system. It is also a one piece set-neck instrument which means the neck is glued to the body. It frets great and plays great and the vibrola system actually stays in tune now with my new trem stabilizer system I just installed. The original pickups have been replaced with (bridge) a Jeff Beck humbucker in a single coil sized pup and (neck) an Yngwei Malmstein double stacked humbucker in a single coil size!
Case Description No case when I had it.
