Gibson AJ Advanced Jumbo Guitar Vintage Sunburst
Solid spruce top Indian rosewood back and sides 20-1/4" body length Multi bindings Sloped-shoulder dreadnought body Rosewood fingerboard with MOP arrows
A re-creation of the limited-production original that has been a collector's item since the late '30s. Features a hand-selected Sitka Spruce top; '30s-style rosewood open-slot vintage bridge; mahogany neck with rosewood fretboard, inlaid MOP arrows, and Gibson logo; vintage firestripe pickguard; and solid Indian rosewood back and sides. Its notable tone and projection are credited to special top bracing, its long scale, and sloped-shoulder body. Includes hardshell case.
