Gibson Century 6 - 1961 SOLD on eBay®. Postings of all items sold on eBay® may remain in this showroom indefinitely. This guitar has aged paint "crackle" which adds charm, and except for one touched-up paint chip on the back edge near the peghead, it is absolutely gorgeous! Click here to see the case...

Designed by the Chicago firm of Barnes & Reinecke, it has a streamlined Art Deco look so favored by collectors and players alike. The Century 6 was introduced in 1948, redesigned in 1960. Although some claim that the postwar Gibson lap steels had a less desirable sound, I have found this to be not so — the P-90 soapbar pickup provides a nice powerful sound and sweet sustain. And its unique salmon-and-beige coloring just knocks you out. Dynamite.
