Gibson Custom Shop / 2005 Historic Collection Southern Jumbo with L.R. Baggs Lyric
Southern Jumbo, Gibson's popular round-shoulder model.
This model is positioned as a higher level model of the popular J-45.
The double parallelogram position marks, cell binding on the fingerboard, and maple body trim give it a sense of originality and luxury.
This time, we have just received a 2005 model.
It features a large pickguard, 20th fret, scalloped bracing, short saddle upper belly bridge, and Gotoh open back tuners.
The neck of many Southern Jumbos from this period are a bit thin, but this one has a slightly rounded neck that feels like it is between a 59 and 60 neck.
It has a wide range of dynamic sound, especially the treble part is sparkling, which is a tone unique to this period.
In addition to this, the midrange has a lot of color and character, which is very nice.
Equipped with the L.R. Baggs Lyric, it is sure to be useful in live performances and recordings, even with the LINE output.
The extreme feature is the exotic rosewood grains used for the fingerboard and bridge.
It is a very special piece that is exciting to look at as well, as if it were an added option.
