Description

By Gibson, Made for Montgomery Ward
Carved Top and Back
Made by Gibson for Montgomery Ward with a Gibson The FON 721B that is in Spahn's list, identifying this as a model 1285: I had thought it was an M-5: it's great to get corrected by the real source. It has a sweet tone and a bigger but still comfortable neck. Everything's original except possibly the bridge, and the condition is fabulous.

Our "Cash price" policy: unfortunately, the credit card companies support "swiped" charges in which the card is physically run through the card reader. Phone-in charges are charged at a much higher rate (to the seller) which can take quite a big chunk out of a high-dollar sale. Thus, for those call-in sales, let's discuss the issue at the time; hopefully, we can figure some way to deal with it.
