This is a very cool Special and one of the most fun guitars Gibson make when they get the recipe right. The double cut shape already gives it a bit more attitude and upper fret access than the single cut version, while the 1960 spec keeps the neck slimmer and a little easier for players who do not want the bigger late-’50s carve. The all-mahogany build and twin P-90 setup is the heart of the appeal though, because that combination always gives these guitars a really lively, punchy and immediate voice. TV Yellow is of course the perfect finish for a Special like this, and the limited croc skin Gibson case just adds another nice touch that makes it feel a bit more special overall. A very strong Custom Shop piece and exactly the sort of guitar that tends to feel more exciting in the hand than the simplicity of the spec sheet suggests.
Condition Report
Excellent condition. There is some minor red staining under the headstock, along with only light signs of use otherwise. Overall it remains a very clean and very tidy example.
