Modifications/RepairsAdded Pickup, some old overspray on the body; crack under pickguard (no movement)

This fantastic J-50 has had a pickup added, changed tuners (from the original nickel to gold), and it appears to have some old overspray on the body, but is otherwise original, and sounds as good as anything Gibson put out during their golden era. The J-50 is identical to the J-45 except for its natural finish, and was famously used by James Taylor early in his career. Includes a Gibson hardshell case.

*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.
