The frets are medium with minimal play wear. The serial number dates to 1969 according to Gruhn's Guide to Vintage Guitars and the Guitar Dater Project. We are calling this a 1968 guitar due to the insert in the trapeze tailpiece, which was no longer done in 1969.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCase Details: \u003c\/b\u003eOriginal Hardshell Case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53838736916799,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G76722487","price":2997.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/gibson-electric-guitars-hollow-body-gibson-barney-kessel-custom-sunburst-1968-gibson-barney-kessel-custom-sunburst-1968-u7246505203-1195458217.jpg?v=1782094575","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/gibson-barney-kessel-custom-sunburst-1968-2387477","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
