A 70s era Dove built for performance
Gibson is proud to collaborate with Frank Hannon, guitarist, songwriter, and co-founder of the multi-platinum band Tesla, to build a highly customized signature Dove™ model. Frank used his 70s era Gibson Dove to write and record numerous hit songs, including the celebrated ballad “Love Song.” This new Love Dove is filled with love, power, and performance, just like Frank’s lyrical, vocal, and musical prowess. Custom features include a Thermally Aged Sitka spruce top married to maple back and sides, allowing for supreme response and resonance, a 70s era Dove bridge with scalloped wings, decorated with mother-of-pearl wing inlays, and the highly desirable Dove pickguard, featuring hand engraved and painted details. Each commemorated with a signed inside label by Frank Hannon and custom Love engraved truss cover.
