1998 Gibson All American II Ebony

Summary: This rare Gibson is called the “All American II” and it was part of of short lived series of guitars that were made in Nashville from 1996-1998! This instrument has two single coil pickups, 24 frets & a very wonderful & unique tone. It was inspired by the original Melody Maker, but differed from it in having chrome tuners, no pickguard, controls rear-mounted in the traditional Gibson solid-body style, and a bridge/vibrola unit.

Body: Solid mahogany body, double cutaway, black finish & a black pickguard.

Neck: Set mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard, 24 frets, 24.75” scale length, 1 11/16” nut width, original tuning keys, dot inlays.

Pickups/Hardware: 2 high output single coil pickups, 3-way switch, one volume knob & one tone knob! Chrome hardware, original tuning keys, tremolo system.

Cosmetics: There are a few nicks & dings on the body with normal signs of wear with a guitar from the late 1990’s. There are lots of small scratches on the body from pick play & some signs of finish checking on the headstock that is going to look cooler & cooler over the next part of this instruments’ life.

Playability: This Gibson plays great – the action is low & the guitar was very easy to set up. We put a new set of 10’s on it – adjusted the truss rod a little bit & it plays great. The fingerboard and the frets are in good shape.

Modifications: N/A

Weight: 8 lbs, 13 oz.
