Gibson Dove 1969 Acoustic Guitar

Gibson Dove 1969 Acoustic Guitar

A true icon from Gibson’s golden era the 1969 Gibson Dove is one of the most collectible and sonically captivating acoustic guitars ever made. First introduced in 1962, the Dove quickly became known for its bold tone, premium craftsmanship, and stunning visual details. This USA-made example from 1969 is in excellent condition and remains completely original, with no cracks, repairs, or modifications.

Featuring a solid spruce top paired with flamed maple back and sides, this Dove offers the perfect blend of crisp articulation, warm low end, and shimmering highs. The flamed maple neck has a comfortable, slightly fuller profile that feels substantial without being bulky ideal for both strummers and fingerstyle players alike.

Classic Dove appointments like the engraved cherry pickguard, pearl dove bridge inlays, and parallelogram fret markers make this guitar as visually stunning as it is sonically rich. Complete with its original black Gibson hardshell case, this vintage Dove is an exceptional find for collectors and players seeking authentic 1960s Gibson tone and craftsmanship.
