1979 Ibanez Concord J-502BK 12-String Jumbo Late 1970s Black / MIJ Lawsuit Era Vintage + Original Hard Case

 

Description

Up for sale is a rare and highly collectible Ibanez Concord J-502BK 12-string jumbo acoustic guitar, handcrafted in Japan during the late 1970s (golden era of MIJ craftsmanship). Serial #D790530

The Concord series from this period is legendary among players and collectors for its exceptional build quality that rivaled major American brands of the era. Inspired by classic jumbo aesthetics, the J-502BK features a striking, high-gloss Black finish paired with beautiful multi-ply binding and distinct split-block fretboard inlays.

This 12-string powerhouse delivers that signature lush, shimmering chime with a deep, resonant jumbo bass response. The internal label clearly confirms its model identity and proud "Produced in Japan Under Strict Quality Control" heritage.

Whether you are a collector of vintage Japanese acoustic guitars or a player seeking a robust, character-filled 12-string, this Concord Jumbo is a standout choice. It comes with Original Hard Case
