Gibson Custom Shop Southern Jumbo 12 Fret 2026, Vintage Sunburst

"Hailing from Gibson’s adventurous Greatest Hits Collection, the Gibson Southern Jumbo 12-fret is a limited-edition, vintage-inspired “jumbo” with a tone all its own. A traditional SJ tonewood concoction of a Sitka spruce top, a mahogany body, and traditional scalloped X-bracing starts this SJ off with a perfect blend of punchiness, mid-forward projection, and harmonic overtones — in short, the classic voice of a vintage Southern Jumbo. However, this guitar’s 12-fret neck joint — as opposed to the 14-fret neck joint of a standard SJ — slightly increases the surface area of the body and results in a bridge position that’s closer to the center of the body. These seemingly subtle modifications supply a deeper, more powerful timbre with superior projection. You’ll appreciate the playability of the Southern Jumbo 12-fret’s rosewood-capped mahogany SlimTaper neck, while LR Baggs VTC electronics grant top-shelf amplified tone. To seal the deal, this A/E’s eye-grabbing double antiqued multi-ply top and back binding, mother-of-pearl parallelogram fingerboard inlays, and iconic Vintage Sunburst finish ensure that you’ll steal the spotlight whenever you take the stage."
