The Southern Jumbo has been an iconic model for decades, and this one lives up to the tradition. Buffed for a shining finish, this 1961 example has a ton of character with beautiful checking. Several cracks and braces have been repaired and reglued, but it remains in great stable condition. It offers bright, full tone and excellent playability.

Includes black HSC.
