http://www.frettedamericana.com/gibson_lptv_cream_1961-d-1015-0.html One of just 32 guitars finished in factory cream - this is one of the very last run of the much loved double cutaway 'Juniors' with rounded horns. Officially marked in the Gibson ledgers as "LP-TV Cream". This exceptionally rare guitar weighs just 6.50 lbs. and has a nice, fat nut width of 1 11/16 inches and a standard Gibson scale length of 24 3/4 inches. One hot black P-90 pickup with an output of 7.77k. Single-ply tortoiseshell pickguard with four screws. Combination "wrap-over" bar bridge/stud tailpiece with two adjustment screws. There is a fair amount of belt buckle wear on the back of the guitar and a few small marks on the top and edges of the body, but the top shows really well and so we will still give it an (8.75) excellent plus condition rating. Housed in a later (seventies) Gibson four-latch black hardshell case with purple plush lining (8.75).
