Vintage 1930s Cromwell Gibson G4 Sunburst Archtop Guitar
Vintage 1930s Cromwell Gibson G4 Sunburst Archtop Guitar
I was recently contacted by the long-term owner of this guitar in London. It’s been in the family for many decades. This one is a really early example of a Cromwell G4 made by Gibson in the 1930s, with the ‘Gibson’ script logo to the headstock too. It’s an incredible little guitar with a solid spruce top, solid mahogany back, sides, and neck. Built to a really high standard in the 1930s! It’s a true beauty and in wonderful condition. The previous owner had looked after it very well, and it has some incredible natural relicing to the body. It’s a real piece of guitar history and a lovely guitar at that! Please have a close look at the high resolution photographs below, as these form part of our description.

The Music Locker prides itself on offering vintage and collectable pre-owned instruments and equipment (the Products).
We take all reasonable steps to ensure the equipment has been inspected by a competent person in the UK to ensure it complies with UK safety standards. This may mean it does not comply with the current standards in the country in which it will be subsequently used. It is the purchasers’ responsibility to ensure it is inspected by a competent person knowledgeable with the relevant electrical safety standards within that country, prior to connecting to any live electrical circuit.
It is the philosophy of The Music Locker to keep all items as original as possible, only changing original components when absolutely necessary. This includes valves, capacitors, transformers, potentiometers, frets, etc. This gives the buyer the option of tailoring to their exact needs, and may mean that the item is not operating at optimum performance levels. Therefore, your personal preference may differ, depending on your circumstances (i.e. collector or musician), and you may decide to service the item in more depth upon receiving.
The Music Locker cannot accept responsibility for any costs of refurbishment to a standard different to the one advertised.
