This Gibson J-50 1956 Acoustic Guitar is a dream guitar for singer-songwriters, recording artists, and vintage guitar enthusiasts alike. With its legendary round-shoulder dreadnought design, it delivers the unmistakable Gibson sound—a rich, growling bass, deep resonance, and a warm, woody vintage character. A true workhorse, it offers huge volume with remarkable tonal balance, making it an unbeatable choice for studio recordings and live performances.

Beyond its incredible sound, this guitar has an authentic vintage aesthetic that tells the story of decades of music-making. The naturally aged finish and well-played patina give it a distinct character that’s sure to turn heads. If this guitar could talk, it would be filled with songs, memories, and history.

This Gibson J-50 1956 Acoustic Guitar is a player and not a collectors guitar – it has undergone some repairs over the years. The heel of the neck has been repaired and some cracks on the back. It has received a new bridge and new tuners. We have checked everything ensuring the guitar remains structurally solid and stage-ready. It has had a neck reset, resulting in excellent playability, a straight neck, and low action. Additionally, it has been equipped with a piezo pickup (brand unknown) making it perfect for both acoustic and amplified performances.

We repeat … This isn’t a collector’s piece—it’s a player’s guitar, ideal for those seeking that magical, vintage Gibson tone without the premium price tag.

This Gibson J-50 1956 Acoustic Guitar comes with a vintage case from the time, which is not original.
