Early 80's Gibson Double cut away, Black strat style headstock, all original. This is the deluxe models with the Kahler Trem and lock nut, and four controls. I called Gibson to check the pick-ups, they are dirty finger pick-ups. They also stated although they didn't have exact numbers, there weren't many of these made. This one has been played and has the usual marks and some dings, but not abused. I took it to my local authorized Gibson repair shop and had it gone over from top to bottom. They replaced the pots and switch. Everypiece was checked and cleaned if necessary. They completely set the guitar up and it plays beautifully and sounds awsome--everyhting works perfectly. The action is incredible and it ahs a fresh set of strings as of yesterday. The original case is included, it is in rough shape but it works fine. I aquired this guitar from a friend of a family member that passed away. I'm not an expert on electrics, not do I have many, so thats why I took it straight to the Gibson shop and have it checked. I didn't want to sell or trade a guitar that had any problems--this one doesn't other that play wear.

Looks like the Gibson Spirit II XPL which was available only in 1985-86.  First and fifth digits of serial number will confirm year of manufacture.
