USED Gibson / Southern Jumbo, 2001, Vintage Sunburst [12]

A 2001 Southern Jumbo has arrived.
The Southern Jumbo is characterized by its flashy ornamentation, based on the Gibson J-45, a flagship model among Gibson acoustic guitars.

While the wood specifications—a solid Sitka spruce top, solid mahogany sides and back, and a mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard—are the same as the J-45, the Southern Jumbo catches the eye with its gorgeous embellishments, including a crown inlay on the headstock, double parallelogram inlays on the fingerboard, neck binding, a multi-layered soundhole rosette, body binding, and a large pickguard.

Additionally, compared to the J-45, the bridge saddle and bridge pins are positioned closer together, resulting in slightly higher string tension. This produces a rapid attack and a crisp, well-defined sound.

A piezo pickup has been added, making it suitable for use as an electro-acoustic guitar.
An additional jack for connecting a separate pickup has been added below the soundhole; however, the compatible pickup is unknown, and it is currently unusable.
There is some wear from picking on a portion of the soundhole, and the guitar is dotted with numerous scratches and dents overall, with fine weather checking covering the entire surface, giving it a distinguished appearance.
The nut and bridge saddles have been replaced, and there is a slight twist in the neck; however, the instrument has been fully serviced and cleaned at our repair center, and playability is excellent.
