For sale is a rare and beautifully crafted 1994 Gibson Masterbuilt Centurion CF-100E—a faithful recreation of Gibson’s groundbreaking 1950 CF-100E acoustic-electric. This guitar was part of Gibson’s 100th Anniversary Centennial Collection, with only 100 total units made, and this is #16 of 100. Built under the supervision of legendary master luthier Ren Ferguson, this CF-100E combines historic Gibson design with master-grade construction and premium tonewoods.

This one comes complete with the original hard-shell case and certificate of authenticity signed by Ren Ferguson and Gibson's then-president. The engraved brass truss rod cover proudly reads "1894–1994", marking this historic run.
