Electronics & Features

The Dove Original has earned its reputation as one of Gibson's finest stage and studio acoustics. The combination of a solid Sitka spruce top with solid flamed maple back and sides produces exceptional clarity, outstanding projection, and a focused low end that remains articulate even under heavy strumming.

The factory-installed LR Baggs VTC pickup system provides natural, studio-quality amplified tone while preserving the guitar's acoustic character, making it equally at home on stage or in the recording studio.

Visually, the Tri Burst finish is what truly sets this guitar apart. It beautifully highlights the premium woods while giving the instrument a depth and elegance rarely seen on modern Gibson acoustics. Combined with the ornate Dove bridge, multi-ply binding, mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays, and iconic engraved pickguard, it is simply a stunning guitar from every angle.

Tone & Feel

The Dove is known for its bold, piano-like projection, exceptional note separation, and crisp high-end response.

The solid flamed maple back and sides give the guitar a brighter, more articulate voice than a mahogany-bodied dreadnought, while the Sitka spruce top adds warmth and dynamic range. Whether you're strumming big open chords, flatpicking, or fingerpicking, the guitar delivers outstanding clarity and balance.

The Rounded "C" neck profile feels extremely comfortable in hand, and at only 4 lbs 14 oz, the guitar is lightweight, lively, and incredibly responsive.
