Description

Large and in-charge in classically bluesy and down-home ways, the Gibson Southern Jumbo Original assumes an upgraded form in the Original series with exclusive Baggs HiFi DNA electronics. This commanding J-45 acoustic assembles with a number of classic Gibson features with highly modern upgrades primed to perform on any stage.

In the Original series, iconic Gibson acoustics are treated to quality tonewoods, striking aesthetics, and high-quality electronics. With plenty to write home about, everything here on this Southern Jumbo starts with a classic round-shoulder dreadnought J-45 body assembled from spruce and mahogany. Classic Gibson tonewoods Sitka spruce and solid mahogany establish an exceptional base of tone for a thoroughly musical feel. These two tonewoods bump up with traditional hand-scalloped X-Bracing for enhanced projection and sustain. Aesthetically, multi-ply binding wraps this Southern Jumbo for a clean geometric accent.

Extending out, this Original series features a mahogany neck in a SlimTaper profile. Seamlessly slipped across the palm, this neck offers easy access to rumbling country chords and lively blues licks, alike. A rosewood fingerboard lays out with this neck lined with twenty Standard-sized frets. Mother of Pearl Parallelogram inlays shine with a dazzling look while presenting a smooth, articulate fretting experience on the fingertips.

This Original model's musicality is backed up by a sturdy setup of hardware specifications. For one, a Traditional Belly Up bridge lands with a bone saddle for a solid transfer of motion. For another, a bone nut and nickel open back tuning machines land toward the headstock for smooth stringing experiences. Exclusive Baggs HiFi DNA electronics come equipped with this Southern Jumbo. A combined pickup and preamp system translate this Southern Jumbo's tones to the stage easily for performance night after night. This Original series travels with an included hardshell case.

A country star warming up its pipes, this Original series Southern Jumbo is raring for the stage.
