1961 Gibson EH-500 Skylark

Introduced in mid-'57, the EH-500 Skylark became Gibson's most popular steel, sharing the futuristic look and Korina body used by the famous Flying V and Explorer guitars, which debuted the following year. Single-line Kluson tuners with cool black buttons, single Melody Maker pickup and reflector-top knobs complete the mid-century goodness of this solid playing instrument. This is an all-original, great sounding steel in very fine condition.

With original hard shell case.
