There are a few small nicks in the fretboard label, As well as a small thing in the back of the body as photographed. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe amplifier on the other hand has begun to show some minor signs of age. The tremolo is unfortunately non-functional. The amplifier sounds great up until around 8.5\/nine on the volume dial. After this point, it starts to break up in a somewhat unfavorable fashion. This is likely a quick fix for a technician who knows their way around vintage amps. We are currently selling this unit as is. The amplifier is in solid, cosmetic shape, But the Gibson logo has fallen off and broken in two. It is still included with the purchase of the set. The original cover for the amp is intact. You just don’t come across this kind of thing anymore! If you’re looking to capture the classic steel guitar sounds from the late 50s onward, This guitar combo is sure to set you on the right path.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51595041833255,"sku":"78902","price":1999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1321\/5233\/files\/IMG_9829.jpg?v=1783384025","url":"https:\/\/asoundeducation.com\/products\/gibson-eh-500-skylark-korina-lap-steel-w-ga-5t-skylark-tube-amplifier","provider":"A Sound Education Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
