1987 Gibson U-2, Serial Number 80847569
By the late 1980s, the demand for fast-playing, high-performance guitars was at its peak, with players seeking instruments that offered sleek designs, versatile electronics, and modern hardware. The Gibson U-2 was part of this evolution, built to appeal to guitarists favoring technical playing styles and Floyd Rose®-equipped guitars.
This 1987 Gibson U-2 is an early, rare iteration that features more similarities with the US-1, including the raised Flying V™-style logo and the sharper scimitar headstock. The instrument has light nicks, dings, and finish checking throughout. The neck pickup was expertly rewound by Gibson’s Pickups Product Manager, Jared Brandon. It retains its original licensed Floyd Rose tremolo system, Grover® Rotomatics® tuners, and black Speed knobs, all of which contribute to its high-performance design. It ships in its original black Gibson rectangle case.
Availability Date: The purchased instrument will be available for pickup at the Gibson Garage in Nashville or shipment to an address in the US starting February 19, 2025.
