It may seem outrageous to claim that buying a vintage Gibson acoustic guitar can change someone's life. But the truth is, a musician who invests in one of these prized guitars may find the sound he or she has always been looking for. Because of the excellent craftsmanship and the resulting rich, strong sound, Gibson guitars from the past may alter the way a singer or guitarist sounds.
So what would keep someone from making this change? There are a couple of hurdles. Availability is the first problem, though a diligent search can turn up several great examples of the vintage Gibson acoustic guitar. *Remember, when looking at and pricing these instruments, the company does make guitars that are modelled after guitars from the 1950s and 1960s but are brand new. These can be an excellent choice as well.
For example, these three new models could eventually become true vintage Gibson acoustic guitars: J-35 20th anniversary Acoustic Guitar; Songwriter Deluxe Standard; Hummingbird True Vintage. They range in price from $3,200 to $3,900 and could hold their value for years to come. (That's one of the key factors with a vintage Gibson guitar.)
Finding a vintage guitar is a bit easier than it was 20 or 30 years ago. There are at least two reasons for this. The World Wide Web/Internet has made it much easier for individuals to advertise their collectible guitars. A musician or collector looking for vintage instruments may be able to type a few key words in an Internet browser and uncover a very desirable guitar. With the fine-tuning of the bidding, buying and shipping processes it's possible to purchase a fine instrument and have it delivered to your door in perfect condition.
The second reason can be a little complicated. Many vintage Gibson acoustic guitars have been purchased by collectors or successful musicians, which means that they aren't scattered around the world one at a time, in the homes of amateur players and semi-professional guitarists. But this may also mean that a vintage Gibson acoustic guitar will be more difficult to buy, even if you are able to locate one. Some of the best instruments made by Gibson are not for sale. If they are, they will command a very high price.
Consider the vintage acoustic guitar by Gibson known as the archtop. Look for a Lloyd Loar L-5 and two or three others of this design. In the flattop category, vintage Gibson acoustic guitars from the 1930s through the 1960s are probably the most "collectible" and should provide great sound and playability.
