I bet it is similar to an "El Success", or a "Sonex", they were cheap Gibsons made in the 80's, Gibson is to ashamed to say anything about them. My friend has both of those guitars, and they are weak quality. Anyway, go to Gibson.net, and they have a number you could call. Give them your serial number, and they will give you info, on when it was made, how many were made, and when they were discountinued.

I've got one - almost 20 years now - and love it. I've seen the sonex an it looks the same but doesn't seem as well built as the GGC-700. Very little info out there and none at gibson web site. It wasn't an expensive guitar ($200 in 1982) but I can't complain. The action is great and the sound is very full. What more can you ask for.

Re: Need info on the Gibson GGC 700
I own a GGC-70 and mine is absolutly great. They were only made for a couple years. The Sonex 180 is very similar. The only difference is the bolt on neck i believe. Good luck
Re: Need info on the Gibson GGC 700
I have one that says prototype on the top. ULTRA RARE! It is a dark blue with sparkles. If anyone can give me more info such as date produced and date discontiued it would e appreciated. Also, the price when it first debuted
Re: Need info on the Gibson GGC 700
I have owned a red Sonex 180 Deluxe since it was new in about 1983 for around 400 bucks. Recently purchase an almost mint black GGC-700 off eBay for around 500 bucks. Like the rest of the posts, it is almost like the Sonex 180 only with a set neck. Seems like the finish and fit is a little better than my Sonex and has a little better sustain. Don't think I'd consider selling either of these though.
