this is a
1960 Gibson Birdland and
It's kind of an interesting guitar.
They started making them in 19
55 made him for about 10 or 15 years
It's got a short scale and a really skinny neck which kind of reminds me of my old
Epiphone Texan

Didn't buy it and then spent another year or two looking for
Another one and finally found this one
