Gibson Southern Jumbo Acoustic Guitar with Case 1962 – Sunburnt

Description

This vintage Gibson Southern Jumbo Acoustic Guitar is a true workhorse with the kind of honest play wear you’d expect from a well‑loved instrument, yet it remains in fantastic playing condition. It has been recently re‑fretted and professionally set up with comfortably low action, making it a joy to play.

Cosmetic & Structural Notes:

• Finish wear visible on the top from years of use
• Pickguard shows mild shrinkage (common on vintage Gibsons)
• Light belt rash on the back
• Neck joint was repaired by Gibson in the 1990s, at which time a headstock volute was added for reinforcement and long‑term stability
