One that has it all: wildness, deadness, and jerkiness."

As its name, which pays homage to the American South, suggests, the Southern Jumbo was first introduced as a model for country and blues music. Today, it is used not only in Americana, but also in a wide range of genres such as rock and pop. This particular guitar is a Southern Jumbo made in 1955. This is one of the first model with large pickguard and 20 frets. The nut width is about 43mm, and the neck is not so thick.
There are some dents, scratches, weather checks, and peeling paint, and there is some fogging on the pickguard near the side of the body. There are no cracks or crack repair marks. There is a long scratch on the treble string side of the back, but it is on the paint film. There is a long scratch on the back on the treble string side, but it is just on the paint film. The back seems to have been partially over-lacquered and there are traces of touch-up. The pegs have been replaced with metal knobs of the Cruson type.
The neck angle was adjusted, refretted, nut height was adjusted with shims, a new saddle was made, and the binding on the first string side of the neck was repaired at our affiliated repair store. Both playability and sound are perfect. The truss rod still has more than 60 degrees of leeway in the tightening direction.
When tuned from the 6th string, you can expect to hear a thumping bass sound. When you play a chord, you will find that this is truly a vintage Gibson acoustic. The resonance is thick and dry with a "jingling-jingling" sound. It also has tenacity and will follow lead work. The wild sound is truly that of the American South. The sound is very southern, and the player can express himself in a variety of ways, from strong and dynamic when played forcefully to simple and simple when played gently. This is a gem that we recommend with confidence. Don't miss it.
Comes with the current hard case of the original collection series.

「野太さ、枯れ加減、ジャキジャキ感、全てが揃った一本」

アメリカ南部に敬意を表したネーミングの通り、カントリーやブルースに向けたモデルとして登場したサザン・ジャンボ。今やアメリカーナのみならず、ロック、ポップスと幅広いジャンルで使用されています。当個体はそんなサザン・ジャンボの1955年製。ラージ・ピックガード、20フレット仕様った最初期の物と言えます。ナット幅は約43mm、ネックはさほど肉厚ではなく、万人好みを言えそうです。
打痕、引っ掻き傷、ウェザー・チェック、塗膜の剥げが散見され、ピックガードのボディ・サイド寄りには曇りの発生が、またネック裏にはカポの痕でしょうか凹み傷も確認できますが、概ね年式相応の使用感、経年劣化と言えるでしょう。クラック及びクラックの修正痕はございません。バックの高音弦側に長い傷がありますが塗膜上のものです。またバックには部分的にオーバー・ラッカーがなされているようで、タッチアップの痕跡がうかがえます。ペグは金属ノブのクルーソン・タイプに交換されています。
当店提携先リペア・ショップにて、ネック・アングル調整、リフレット、シムを挟んでのナット高さ調整、サドル新規作成、ネックの1弦側のバインディング剥がれ修正をおこないました。演奏性、サウンドともに申し分ございません。トラス・ロッドは締め方向に60度以上の余裕が残っております。
6弦からチューニングしていくと、まずガツンと腹に響く低音に期待がこみ上げます。コードを奏でてみれば、これぞまさしくヴィンテージ・ギブソン・アコースティック。野太くも枯れた「ジャリンジャリン」としたレゾナンスに唸らせられます。粘り強さも持ち合わせており、リード・ワークにも追従してくれるでしょう。野性味溢れるサウンドはまさにアメリカ南部。力強く弾けば逞しく豪快に、優しく爪弾けば素朴に、弾き手の意のままに多彩な表現が出来るでしょう。自信を持ってお勧めする逸品。お見逃しないように。
現行のオリジナル・コレクション・シリーズのハード・ケースが付属いたします。
