This Songwriter will become your favorite tool, on stage as in the studio, whether you play Blues, Rock and even Country and Pop.

Gibson Montana luthiers wanted to pay tribute to the guitars of the 30s by taking up the X-bracing system of the time, integrating it into a modernized Dreadnought format. The natural projection of the instrument is increased tenfold and then offers an unsuspected dynamic for the format.

Gibson's selection of woods uses only the best species since we find back and sides in Rosewood, a Sitka Spruce top for a warm, deep but precise sound.

To guarantee optimal playing comfort, the Mahogany neck has a rounded profile and is very accessible to all body types. Completed by a Rosewood fingerboard, the attack thus recovers roundness and color.

EC model (for electro / cutaway) requires, a cutaway has been designed to facilitate access to the treble, and the instrument has been equipped with a Fishman Prefix Plus-T pre-amplification system. With great precision and total transparency on the signal, you can adjust the volume, the EQ, the phase inversion of the onboard microphone while benefiting from a tuner.

To protect the instrument and its superb Rosewood Burst color, Gibson delivers the guitar in a hard case, thus securing your various trips.
