Description

This 1968 Gibson J-50 is a beautifully preserved example of a classic slope-shoulder dreadnought, offering rich, balanced tone and excellent playability. While it shows signs of vintage character, including attractive checking in the finish, it remains in excellent structural and functional condition. The guitar is mostly original, with the exception of a light overspray on the top and an added maple cap on the bridge, both professionally done and minimally invasive. Its warm, open sound is everything you'd expect from a well-aged J-50, making it a joy for both fingerstyle and strumming. Includes a hardshell case for safe storage and transport.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
