The shy brother of the J-45 with a more bashful natural finish, the Gibson J-50 is a powerhouse. Some believe that the lack of Sunburst finish offers the guitar more room to breathe and improved sonic qualities. What we do know, is a good guitar is a good guitar. This instrument has a sonic quality that embodies everything that makes Gibson acoustics so desirable. The warm and rich tone that only comes from a sloped shoulder dreadnought coupled with years of resonating tonewoods leaves us with an exceptional example of an early 60's Gibson. Repairs include a refret, bridge reglue, five cleated top cracks, a new nut and saddle and a reglued pickguard.Comes with a black hardshell case
