The Super 400 CES is the largest archtop Gibson makes, measuring 18 inches across the lower bout. Built by the Custom Shop's Art & Historic team, this 2004 model features a solid Sitka spruce top paired with a gorgeous figured maple back and sides.

The large hollow body gives the guitar a deep, resonant acoustic voice, while the '57 Classic humbuckers deliver a warm, smooth jazz tone when amplified. The neck is a solid 5-piece maple and walnut construction with an ebony fingerboard and traditional split-block inlays. Finished with multi-ply binding and an engraved gold tailpiece, it is a clean, exceptionally well-made example of Gibson’s flagship archtop. Includes its original hardshell case.
