My guess is a 1941 EH-150.

That would be a 1941 Eh-150. I have an earlier 1941 seven string with pearl dot position markers. This one for sale has BR-9 knobs, replaced tuners and some funkiness around the nut but that pickup sounds great.

Isn't it a 185?

BTW, be sure to check out the superb new book by AR Duchessoir - Gibson Electric Steel Guitars: 1935-1967

Not quite as much guitar porn as the Bigsby book, but what is?

John Dahms · From: Perkasie, Pennsylvania, USA

It's a 150 alright. Here's mine.

Thank you gentlemen Very Happy

i'll opt for the EH185

Richard Shatz · From: St. Louis

This is an EH-185.

Brad Bechtel · From: San Francisco, CA

The guitar in the eBay auction is definitely NOT an EH-185. It matches the description of a 1941 EH-150 exactly as given in Gruhn's Guide to Vintage Guitars.
