Gibson MK-53 1975 - 1978 - Sunburst
$1,545.00This 1977 Gibson MK-53 is a unique and rare piece from Gibson's experimental era, blending modern innovation with classic acoustic tones. With its solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides, this guitar produces a warm, resonant sound with a deep low end and sparkling highs. What sets the MK series apart is its innovative adjustable bridge and asymmetrical bracing, which allow for improved tonal balance and sustain, giving this acoustic a voice that’s rich and full.
The mahogany neck with a rosewood fretboard offers smooth playability, with a comfortable profile that’s perfect for both fingerstyle and strumming. The natural finish has aged beautifully, showing off the wood grain and giving this guitar a well-worn vintage vibe that only 40+ years of playing can provide.
