A 1968 Gibson Dove signed by Johnny Cash & Kitty Wells. Kitty Wells, a famous country singer in her own right, was also a part of Johny Cash's ensemble for many of his performances. This rare '68 Gibson features art of a dove sitting among flowering branches on the pickguard. It has a solid spruce top, maple back and sides. Serial #910996.

The Dove was introduced in 1962 as Gibson's second square-shoulder dreadnought after the Hummingbird. Like the Hummingbird, the Dove's set of unique visual details has made it one of Gibson's more iconic acoustic guitars.
