The Classic Gibson Dove, Reborn For Modern Players
The Gibson Dove has been a rock and roll staple since 1962. This Dove Original in Vintage Cherry Sunburst keeps that history alive with a big, balanced voice and modern stage ready electronics that make it a serious lifer guitar.
Sitka Spruce Top And Flame Maple Back For Chime And Punch
The solid Sitka spruce top gives you that familiar Gibson warmth and bloom, while the flame maple back and sides add focus, clarity, and extra cut in a mix. You get a rich, piano like low end, clear mids, and glassy top that never gets harsh.
A bone nut and bone saddle keep the string energy transferring straight into the body so the guitar feels alive under your hands. Real talk, this is the kind of acoustic that stays articulate when you dig in and still responds beautifully when you ease back.
Long Scale Power, Comfortable Round Neck
The 25.5 inch scale length gives the Dove a little extra snap and headroom, perfect for big open chords and alternate tunings that stay tight. The mahogany neck with its round profile fills your hand just enough without feeling bulky.
A 12 inch rosewood fingerboard radius and 20 standard frets keep bends smooth and chords comfortable all the way up the neck. It feels familiar and inviting, whether you are strumming hard, flatpicking lines, or working on more intricate parts.
LR Baggs VTC: Plug In And Own The Room
Factory equipped with LR Baggs VTC under saddle electronics, this Dove is ready for any stage or studio as soon as you open the case. The pickup delivers a natural, dynamic sound that lets the character of the spruce and maple come through instead of turning into quacky piezo tone.
Soundhole mounted volume and tone controls keep everything within easy reach but out of the way. You can fine tune your sound mid song without breaking the vibe or reaching back to your amp.
Vintage Cherry Sunburst Nitro And Iconic Dove Details
The Vintage Cherry Sunburst nitrocellulose finish is pure classic Gibson. Nitro lets the wood breathe and resonate in a way thick poly just cannot match, and over time it will age and open up even more.
The multi ply binding on the top and back, engraved Dove pickguard with mother of pearl inlay, rosewood Dove bridge, nickel Grover Keystone tuners, and Dove truss rod cover all hit that sweet spot of classy and unmistakably Gibson. At around 5.3 pounds it feels solid but never bulky on a strap.
