Gibson Southern Jumbo (SJ) “Banner” TV True Vintage 2008 – amazing steelstring dreadnought guitar!

The Gibson SJ acoustic guitar is the prince of a range of Gibson flattops now referred to as “Round-Shoulder Dreadnoughts.” This elegant workhorse debuted in 1942, and became an instant favorite for its rich, warm, vocal tone and excellent projection.
Today, this Gibson acoustic guitar is played by the likes of Bob Dylan, Ralph McTell, Billy Jo Armstrong, and Lucinda Williams. Carrying accurate touches such as a Slim-Taper neck profile, teardrop tortoise pickguard, 4-ply top binding, and banner headstock inlay (declaring “Only A Gibson Is Good Enough”), the Gibson SJ True Vintage is an accurate representation of the acoustic guitar that became the standard of hard-gigging bluegrass, folk, and country artists of the 1940s and 1950s.

It is in excellent condition with only a small amount of playwear in the finish of the body.
This particular example is light and as such superbly resonant and sounds great with that awesome Gibson ping. Chords ring perfectly with fantastic note definition and the nice low action makes this guitar a dream to play.
