Gibson / Southern Jumbo (SJ) / 1950 / Guitar
|
What a sound …. this Gibson is simply stunningly beautiful in the sound!!!!!
Here is a SJ (Southern Jumbo) from 1950. It has an Adirondack spruce top – which is especially popular among connoisseurs. In my experience it is the best top material you can get for guitars, a real gem with character in appearance and especially in sound.
It sounds enchanting. It has outstanding basses and an inimitable vintage sound – really indescribably beautiful.
It is largely original, but has already undergone some repairs and got some scratches, traces of playing etc.. I don’t want to and can’t list everything here. For those who are looking for a new/perfect guitar, I can say right away that they better look for something else.
This is a player guitar, for those who are looking for the grandiose sound of a guitar that has definitely not been lying somewhere under the bed, but loved and played. The action is flat and it plays super easy.
Vintage Guitar World, Germany 
Vintage Guitar World was founded out of a deep passion for guitar playing and the lifelong search for truly special sound. For us, selling guitars is far more than a profession – it is a way of life. We love guitars, live music, and the stories that great instruments carry with them.
We specialize in classical guitars, flamenco guitars, and acoustic steel-string guitars. As our name suggests, our main focus is on vintage and historically significant instruments, but we also offer outstanding modern guitars by exceptional makers. Our goal is always the same: to present our customers with unique, high-quality guitars that stand out clearly in tone, character, and craftsmanship.
Every guitar we offer is carefully selected for its sound and musical qualities. No instrument enters our shop by chance. We believe that a great guitar must inspire the player from the very first note, whether it is a rare vintage piece or a modern handmade instrument.
Before any guitar is offered for sale, it is thoroughly checked and professionally adjusted. We work closely with experienced guitar builders and specialized repair shops to ensure that each instrument is structurally sound, optimally set up, and ready to be played at its full potential. Transparency and trust are essential to us, and we always describe instruments honestly and in detail.
