Lovies Guitars is excited to offer up this 2006 Gibson SJ-100 Natural Acoustic/ Electric Jumbo Guitar! Built in Bozeman, Montana and for the moment out of production, the Gibson SJ-100 recreates the sound and feel of the pre-war Mahogany jumbo body. The Super Jumbo body style appeared in 1938 and is best known for the J-200 model, with Spruce top and Maple for the back and sides. In 1939, the less expensive and less decorated SJ-100 appeared, with a Spruce top, but with Mahogany for the back and sides and with a much plainer – and thinner – pickguard. The fingerboard and bridge are Mahogany, and the SJ-100 has a largish but much simpler bridge than the J-200’s ‘Moustache’ cut out unit. By 1943, the advent and demands of war ended production for several years. The SJ-100 was not re-launched until small samples started appearing around 1985 and in 2013 the Gibson Acoustic shop in Bozeman, Montana built a number of fairly accurate reproductions, with L R Baggs pickup systems added. This is a very nice guitar to play. It’s got a warm, full and well articulated sound, with plenty of projection and handles being played softly or enthusiastically equally well. The scale length is unusual for Gibson at 25.25 inches, increasing tension but not as much as full-scale dreadnaughts. This guitar is in excellent shape with a light blemish on the headstock, some minor indents and marks and finish checking at the heel, rated at 9/10. All original with an added strap button and free of any breaks, cracks or repairs. Included with this guitar is an original hard-shell case, a complimentary sample of Fret-Not, our preferred fretboard cleaner, check it out at fretnot.net and a complimentary Cooper Standard Fin guitar pick—our favorite for enhanced control and reduced movement!
