Vintage 60's Kalamazoo by Gibson - Red - w/ Gibson Chipboard Case
$1,074.00A charming and no-frills piece of Gibson history, this vintage 1960s Kalamazoo was built in the same factory as its Gibson-branded cousins, offering classic American tone and playability at a working player’s price. Featuring a bolt-on neck, lightweight body, and a single robust single-coil pickup (or two, depending on model), these guitars are known for their raw, punchy tone—perfect for garage rock, blues, or lo-fi jangle. The slim neck carve and short scale make it a super comfortable player, and the original electronics and hardware are all intact and working as they should. It's got loads of vintage mojo without the collector price tag, and it oozes '60s character from every angle.
Cosmetically it wears its age well, with natural checking and honest wear throughout that only add to its vintage appeal. Complete with the original Gibson-branded chipboard case, this Kalamazoo is a killer piece of mid-century American craftsmanship that’s ready to inspire.
This guitar is a great addition in anyone’s collection and with a fresh set up it is ready to go!
