Built exclusively for Francis, Day and Hunter, the legendary London-based music publisher and Tin Pan Alley distributor, this guitar represents a unique chapter in Gibson's international production history. Hand-carved archtop construction delivers the warm, projective tone prized by jazz and classical players of the era. The FDH designation marks this as a premium custom model, distinguishing it from standard Gibson production. With fewer than 123 examples produced and even fewer surviving today, this 1939 model stands as a significant collector's piece and functional vintage instrument. Hard case included. A rare opportunity to own a piece of British music history and Gibson's international legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePLEASE NOTE!
