Description
Gibson J-50 1952 – a cool Roundshoulder Vintage Dreadnought. A fabulous player with a great vintage sound!
The Gibson J-50 features the same specifications as its sunburst sibling, the Gibson J-45. It is the so called workhorse among the Gibson guitar family – it will never let you down, always ready when you need it.
Bob Dylan, John Hiatt, Brad Paisley … the list of the famous players is very long.
This Gibson J-50 1952 is a real gem with character in appearance and especially in sound. Here you get the ultimate vintage sound.
We personally like the sound of this Gibson because it has a very strong vintage touch. The sound is deep and the woods resonate just great. The basses have a lovely growling and it is the perfect guitar for recording, stage or personal use at home.
It plays perfectly and is wonderfully adjusted. Low action, straight neck – it had a neck reset. The nut width is 43 mm.
As you can see in the pictures the guitar has a very nice vintage look. It is in great and original vintage condition – with some marks from a removed screwed pickguard and a small repair. The tuners are vintage style replacements.
It comes with a vintage case (non original).
