I played a 1958 Gibson F12 today and liked it. I saw the tag on it at music store and had some prejudice about the F12's from what I've read they don't seem to get much love. It had a nice tone much brighter than I expected and it was pretty good volume wise. This is the oldest F12 I've seen for sale. They were asking $2800 for it and I'm wondering if that's a decent price, it's condition was just OK I don't know how to judge a 60 year old instrument ? There was a bad repair job on the head stock along with some some dings and dents but nothing major on the top or back. Any opinions on a 58 F12 would be good to hear.
Thanks
Lou
