This Gibson Southern Jumbo 1954 combines timeless elegance, outstanding craftsmanship and an incomparable sound that has inspired generations of musicians.

Gibson, one of the most renowned guitar manufacturers in the world, was founded in 1902 and has created numerous iconic models. The Southern Jumbo, introduced in 1942, was considered one of Gibson's most luxurious acoustic models. It was played by legendary musicians such as Bob Dylan and Woody Guthrie and is still extremely popular with collectors and players today.

This impressive Southern Jumbo from 1954 offers the warm, rich sound that Gibson is known for. Its deep bass, clear mids and sparkling highs create a balanced sound that is perfect for singer-songwriters, bluegrass and folk musicians.

With a comfortable string action at the 12th fret (E-string 2.3 mm and E-string 1.7 mm) and a nut width of 43 mm, this guitar offers a smooth and effortless playing experience.

Made from high-quality materials, it has a fine spruce top for a powerful tone, mahogany back and sides for a warm resonance and a rosewood fingerboard that guarantees longevity and excellent playability.

This instrument is in great vintage condition, especially considering its age. It shows clear signs of playing, especially from fingerpicks, which emphasizes its authentic vintage character. There are no cracks or breaks - an amazing aspect for an instrument that has been played all these years. The bridge, bridgeplate, machine heads and pickguard have been replaced. All other components and the varnish are original. The guitar comes with a vintage TKL case as used by Gibson in the 60s.

The Gibson Southern Jumbo 1954 is a true player's and collector's guitar and an outstanding choice for guitarists looking for the unique sound and charm of a vintage instrument.
