[SOLD ELSEWHERE] 2021 Gibson Sheryl Crow Country & Western Supreme

CryptidCryptid Frets: 406
edited November 2022 in Acoustics £
2021 Gibson CS Sheryl Crow Country & Western Supreme - £2600  SOLD







More photos here...

These are now going for £3899 new, if you can find one. Pristine condition except a few tiny marks on the top and some very light buckle rash - all too minor to get across in a photo. COA and all case candy present. Label hand-signed by Sheryl Crow. 

It's lightly-built and responsive with a sweet voice but plenty of punch and projection due to the 1930's advanced bracing. Doesn't have the booming bottom of most dreads; it's more well-behaved with a gorgeous, thick midrange and brilliant top end without ever being brittle. It may look like a Hummingbird but sounds/feels in another league entirely. 

Factory-fitted with the excellent Trance Audio Amulet M pickup which faithfully reproduces the unique character of the guitar when amplified. 

Action is 2.25mm / 2mm. Strung with 12's. 

SPECS:
  • NUT WIDTH: 1.725", bone
  • NECK: Mahogany, rounded profile
  • FRETBOARD: Rosewood, 24.75" scale, 12" radius

    That's so nice - I was close to buying one of these earlier in the year.  If I wasn't in full austerity mode currently I'd totally grab this

    Thanks man. Played an old Guild last week and got a nasty case of GAS, but I'll probably decide to keep this. I heard Gibson may be ceasing production of these soon so the chances of me getting one again are slim.

    But GLWTS if you decide to

    @Mellish I'm fickle, what can I say? ;) It is undoubtably the sweetest and most responsive Gibson I've played, but my SJ-200 just feels like home for the majority of the material I perform. Not sure I can justify keeping both.
