Description

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.
