They were never a mainstay of their acoustic lines but they made them for awhile. Not sure if they still do. They come up for sale around me from time to time and the ones I always see are from the 1960s. They're not particularly valuable - usually they're selling for well under $1000. I don't know how Gibson classicals are viewed in the general classical guitar community.
Really cool video. We have a 1965 C1 classical but ours does not have the 3 piece neck. Ours just has the 1 piece mahogany neck, without the maple center strip.
I especially like Gibson's exquisite, hand-inlaid rosette decal. The restoration is way more impressive than the guitar. Looks like it was played a lot though.
Didn't know Gibson made a classical guitar!

It's the second one I've done on so many months!
It is the little things that differentiate a good shop from a great one. Saving the internal sticker was a nice touch.
Thanks, the sticker is part of the guitar's history.
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t impressed with that caul fabrication. Well done sir.
Thank you very much Joey. The 'ol gravestone rubbing method works well!
A very interesting video. I had heard there were nylon stringed versions. Had never seen one in the wild!
This one was the first of 2 i've seen the past month!
Luv it!!!

Yep, and it's actually in very nice condition. Great video again..
Thanks for sharing them tricks! You need a new fishing hole.
You bet! Maybe next time I'll catch a Martin!

LOL! Indeed!
