Description
This gorgeous Gibson J-35 comes from a real Gibson golden age and has been broken in over the years resulting in a remarkably beautiful sound. Its spruce and mahogany combination have resulted in a responsive and snappy dry tone. This guitar definitely has some stories to tell and the appearance to match; it's been worn in over the years. It has many cracks due to the thin wood used and due to some drying out, but they have been addressed and it's in great stable condition. It's undergone several other repairs to keep it up and running including a neck reset and refret. For a full list of repairs check out our Specs tab. This J-35 is truly a sensational piece ready for its next chapter.
Includes 90s Gibson case (two broken latches).
