Gibson Dove Original - Vintage Cherry Sunburst with Hard Shell Case

The Gibson Dove Original - A Distinctive Acoustic with Classic Country Style and Unmistakable Tone

Classic Aesthetic with Vintage Appeal

The Gibson Dove Original stands out with its eye-catching Vintage Cherry Sunburst finish and iconic square-shouldered dreadnought body. This acoustic guitar is a faithful recreation of a 1960s classic, complete with the distinctive dove-inlaid pickguard and parallelogram fingerboard inlays that made the original an icon in country and rock music. The warm, inviting look is matched by elegant craftsmanship, making this a showpiece as much as a player’s instrument.

Premium Tonewoods for Balanced Acoustic Sound

Crafted with a solid Sitka spruce top and flame maple back and sides, the Dove Original produces a bold, articulate tone with plenty of projection. Maple’s natural brightness adds clarity to each chord, while the spruce top delivers a balanced response across the frequency spectrum. 

Comfortable Playability and Precision Feel

A rounded “C” neck profile and 1.725" nut width offer exceptional comfort. The rosewood fingerboard with 12" radius ensures smooth playability all the way up the neck. 

Stage-Ready with Discreet Electronics

Equipped with an LR Baggs VTC pickup system, the Dove Original is ready to go from the living room to the spotlight. The undersaddle pickup and unobtrusive soundhole-mounted controls preserve the guitar’s classic appearance while delivering natural, dynamic acoustic tone through an amplifier or PA system.
