Vintage J-185, rare in circulation, best vintage gear with tiger eyes!
Gibson / 1956 J-185
Vintage J-185 produced only 9 years from 1951 to 1959.
It is a jumbo body style with 16 1/4" width, which is one size smaller than J-200.
The simple decoration gives it a very attractive Gibson appearance.
The body is made of maple, the same as the J-200, and the body back is filled with tiger grain, which is hidden by the simple decorations, but still has a strong presence.
The head and fingerboard are decorated with pearl inlays in the familiar style of the Southern Jumbo, and the original upper belly type bridge has a Maltese cross embedded in it.
The medium scale has a very attractive loose Gibson-like sound and comfortable playing feel.
Although the bass sound is less tame than that of the J-200, its flat sound texture and sharpness are irresistible.
This is a rare J-185 from the 1950s, and is one of the most original with no replacement parts.
