Details
In over 55 years of dealing with vintage fretted instruments, we've never had a Gibson ukulele in this pristine level of condition. Original throughout (except for strings), this Style 3 has only the lightest signs of being strummed, and it has also been stored without exposure to UV, so the colors are vivid and rich throughout (note the colors of the marquetry soundhole rosette).
This has its original lacquer finish, and there is some light checking, or crazing, lines on the top and back but you need bright lighting to see them. It's very playable and sounds bright and chimey, and even has quite good intonation!
