Details
Here's a highly original mid-'60s B-45-12N, and judging by the very slight fret wear and lack of many finish scratches and dings it just didn't see much use. No cracks, no sign of any repairs, and all the parts are what Gibson gave it when new. There are some dings to the finish on the back of the neck, probably from an unpadded stand or from being leaned against something. There is a fine pattern of lacquer crazing on the top, which you expect to see on Gibsons from this era.
