Tommy Shepard had 1 for sale at his shop in Huntsville a while back,a later model,maybe early 50s, He asked me 3grand for it. To be honest, I wasn't impressed with the tone of that one at all.

If I have it right (?) Gibson made a series of mistakes with their acoustics staring in late 50's that hampered not only sales but sound. Still isn't there a big difference between pre-war and 50's models of anything?

Nice looking guitar, you buying or just enjoying?

Would be interesting to look inside at the bridge plate, like Mister.Fretshack said it might be nothing, but a light and mirror look around inside might be worth the time.
