This KGN-12 Oriole model was like Gibson's L-oo & is probably the most beautiful 100% original example extent. Its all Blonde finish is stunning from its Spruce top to its very figured Maple back & sides. ... more

Incredible sounding and playing kalamazoo kg-14 that has been completely gone through by my luthier!
