Brought back to life
It's history in the palm of your hand. When it was first released, the 1936 Advanced Jumbo was one of Gibson's most supreme sounding and performance ready instruments yet. They offered some positivity to guitarists at a time when cultural optimism was low. Unfortunately, due to low production numbers, this fantastic guitar got lost in the passage of time. Now, collectors and acoustic enthusiasts can get their hands on one that has been crafted in celebration of its heritage. A historic AJ shaped neck, AJ pickguard, open-slot bridge, and bone saddle all add to the classic character of this guitar.
