Gibson Southern Jumbo Squareshoulder 1968 played by Kylie Kay Anderson | Demo

The SJ or Southern Jumbo model, along with the Dove, Hummingbird, and Country Western, underwent a significant change in appearance in 1963 when Gibson replaced the slope shoulder design with a square shoulder design. This design change not only affected the appearance, but the guitar also got a longer scale of 645 mm. There's no denying that these are great sounding instruments with a lot of character. Similar to a Martin D18, but with that typical mellow sounding Gibson magic. They are known as perfect studio instruments that lend themselves perfectly to the most beautiful recordings. This copy from 1968 can be called special to say the least. The experts may have noticed, but a 1968 SJ should actually have a pointed pickguard and a bridge that is exactly the other way around. It is remarkable that these specifications differ for this Southern Jumbo. The guitar naturally also has the expected play and use traces that fit an instrument of this age. The frets have been replaced, as has the bridge saddle. It should be noted that the original rosewood bridge saddle is included. Furthermore, the guitar has had a neck reset, and a repair has been carried out on the heel. Nevertheless, the guitar plays excellently and also has a wonderful, well-played sound. The guitar is in good condition and comes with a period-correct cardboard case. Gear: Gibson Southern Jumbo Squareshoulder 1968: https://www.tfoa.eu/en/gibson-souther...
