Explanation
Gibson / 1961 Southern Jumbo
The Southern Jumbo, which appeared in 1942, was a higher-end model of the Gibson J-45, which also featured a round shoulder design.
It wasn't until 1955, 13 years after its initial release, that this model adopted its standard specifications.
- Final year of round shoulders
This instrument, which has a round shoulder similar to the J-45, uses spruce for its top.
The fine weather checking and wear from years of playing combine to give it a vintage feel.
As the design transitioned to a square shoulder design in 1962, this is a valuable example from the final period of the round shoulder design.
The sides and back are made of mahogany, and it features a black backstrip not found on the J-45.RecruitIt is being done.
This one also features weather checking throughout, giving it a dignified and impressive texture.
The fretboard is made of rosewood and features double parallelogram inlays.RecruitFurthermore, it boasts decorations befitting a higher-end model.
Additionally, the sides of the fretboard are bound.
There is some peeling of the binding on the side of the fretboard from the 3rd to the 5th fret on the 6th string side, but this does not significantly affect playability, so you can use it with confidence.
The mahogany neck has a thin neck shape, providing a comfortable grip.
A strap pin has been added to the neck heel.
The rosewood upper belly bridge is fitted with a short saddle.
From 1960 onwards, the J-45 came standard with an adjustable saddle, while the Southern Jumbo had a slotted saddle.RecruitGiven this, it can be inferred that they were aiming for a brilliant sound that resonated throughout the entire body of the instrument.
The headstock features Gibson's modern logo, as well as a crown inlay.
The bell-shaped truss rod cover can be found in two-piece configurations depending on the individual instrument, but this particular unit has a single-piece cover.RecruitIt is being done.
The tuning machine is a single line from KLUSON DELUXE.RecruitIt is being done.
Unlike the J-45's triple-in-line tuning pegs, it has separate tuners.RecruitThis is also one of its characteristics.
With its overall imposing appearance and unique features that set it apart from the J-45, this guitar is packed with irreplaceable charm.
