The Southern Jumbo is a round-shoulder Gibson from the war years, and originals are among the most prized flat-tops on the vintage market. The Original keeps its details: mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays, double antiqued multi-ply binding on top and back, and nickel open-back tuners.
Sitka spruce over mahogany, hand-scalloped X-bracing, a SlimTaper neck on a rosewood board and a bone nut and saddle. A Baggs VTC pickup with volume and tone. Vintage Sunburst, gloss nitro.
