An expertly crafted and artfully aged recreation of an exceptionally rare and highly coveted Super Jumbo model
The 1939 SJ-100 is a replica of the rare and very distinctive mahogany-backed Super Jumbo 100 that was built for only a few years (circa 1939-1942). The 1939 SJ-100 Heavy Aged fully replicates the original and exceptionally rare 1939 SJ-100 guitars that are coveted by collectors and vintage Gibson experts around the world. It features a thermally aged red spruce top with Gibson’s hand-scalloped X bracing that helps give it the tone of a long-cherished heirloom, solid mahogany back and sides, and the top and back are both bound. The 2-piece maple neck has a rounded profile, 25.5” (647.7 mm) scale length, and a bound ebony fretboard with 20 standard frets, mother-of-pearl dot inlays, and an easy-playing 12” fretboard radius. The neck features Gibson’s compound dovetail neck-to-body joint and is set using hot hide glue. Other notable features include a vintage SJ-100 style firestripe pickguard, ebony moustache™ bridge, bone bridge pins, nut and saddle, the rare, vintage “stair step” headstock design, the Gibson script style headstock logo inlaid in mother of pearl, and Waverly tuners with ivoroid knobs. Crafted by the expert luthiers and craftspeople at the Gibson Custom Shop in Bozeman, Montana, it has been artfully aged by the artisans of the Murphy Lab to give it the look and feel of a long-cherished musical companion. Here’s your chance to own one of Gibson’s rarest acoustic guitar models, with all the tone, vibe, playability, and appearance of a vintage original without the vintage price tag and potential issues that can accompany an eighty-year-old guitar. A Gibson Custom hardshell case is also included.
