Gibson Custom Johnny A Signature With Bigsby – Used
This guitar is in excellent condition and has been kept very clean. It is a one owner that has never been gigged.
This Gibson Custom semi-acoustic is as signature of a guitar as the artist himself. The Johnny A. signature semi-hollow electric has a maple top and mahogany back and sides. It is louder acoustically than you may perceive. Through a clean amp, it is organic and crisp. In front of distortion, it has clear note definition and the fatness/fullness of a larger counterpart.
With a 25.5″ scale, the Johnny A. signature semi hollow gives you great access to the higher register of the fretboard. It’s quartersawn mahogany neck is chunky but very easy to play. Triple-ply binding and custom inlays add to the sparkle and sheen of this exquisite pro level guitar.
Guitarist Johnny A. has had a long running career as a sideman for musicians such as Peter Wolf of the J. Geils Band, Bobby Whitlock of Derek and the Dominos, and in his own original bands and as a solo guitar player. His influence of Jimi Hendrix and Danny Gatton into playing jazz, rock, and blues gave him an original approach to the instrument.
