Description

This singular Banner Era Gibson Southern Jumbo has seen its fair share of modifications, but retains its dry, powerful vintage tone 80 years on. This guitar has the two-tone sunburst with dark black edges, nicely aged binding and a rare firestripe pickguard. The most noticeable modifications include the full refinish and the sanding of the neck finish. The neck is a thicker size, and the bare wood makes for a comfortable left hand experience. It's benefitted from a neck reset and refret to add to its great playability. For the full list of repairs and modifications pop over to our specs tab.

Includes modern TKL hard shell case.
