The Story

1970 J-50 Acoustic Guitar Natural

This is a Gibson J-50 acoustic, built in 1970 with a natural finish. The guitar is in overall very good condition with lacquer checking around the body and small dings around - no cracks in the wood or issues structurally. The guitar has been heavily oversprayed without masking the bridge, so there's spray going onto the the piece of wood. The guitar also notably had both a neck and bridge reset at one point. The neck has a chunky round feel to it, and the tone is a really well seasoned warm sound. Lots of bass but not too much that it overpowers the high end! Aftermarket gold Grover tuners are installed. A non-original Martin hardshell case is included.
