$3,150.00

  • Year: 1968
  • Manufacturer: Gibson
  • Model: Southern Jumbo
  • Case: Hard
  • Color: Dark burst
  • Condition: Very Good
  • Description: #901937 with "2" stamp. This means factory second, but most 2nds have only minor cosmetic irregularities. Great looking square shouldered and in above average condition for 68, this is a handsome musical instrument. Not patinated as the other 60's Gibsons, it actually has a gloss finish on the front, but it sounds aged, deep and wonderful. A fine piece of Gibson 60's workmanship. As you can tell from the plethora of 60's gibsons on my site, I am love the rich resonance of these instruments. I have been snapping up all the best-sounding SJumbos, J-45 and even a few exceptional J-50's because I am certain they are undervalued for what they are. You can't touch Martins from this period for anywhere near these prices. You really should try one and see.
