One of two 2018 Gibson Historic R9s just in, and this one is in near mint condition like the other.

This one is gorgeous and it plays perfectly.  During our verification and documentation process, we check every truss rod to make sure there is room for future neck relief adjustments.  This guitar set up perfectly and there are no changes, repairs, or issues.

Frets show list a little superficial wear.

The original case houses the COA and all the original case candy.
