One of the rarest Gibson guitars we have ever had in Gitarren Total! A custom made Johnny Smith with full size patent number pickups. This guitar was apparently made to customer specifications, as the Johnny Smith usually came from the factory with mini humbucker pickups mounted directly on the pickguard. This extremely rare Gibson is the crown jewel of any archtop collection.
