1966 Gibson Trini Lopez, Serial Number 841213

The Trini Lopez Standard debuted in 1964 as a signature model based on the ES-335 platform, distinguished by split diamond fretboard inlays, unique diamond-shaped soundholes, and a Firebird™-style headstock. It offered a sleek, modernized take on the classic semi-hollow formula and has become a cult favorite among players and collectors alike.

This Gibson Certified Vintage 1966 Trini Lopez is an incredibly clean, near-mint instrument in its original Cherry finish. The guitar is 100% original and shows no noticeable playwear. The frets were lightly tarnished and have been cleaned, but beyond that, the guitar remains exactly as it left the factory. It's an exceptional piece for collectors or anyone seeking a nearly untouched, vintage Trini.

This guitar comes with its original black and gold Gibson hardshell case and includes a Certificate of Authenticity, Letter of Appraisal, and new Limited Lifetime Warranty.
