Gibson J-185 Original Acoustic-Electric Antique Natural

J-185 Original Acoustic-Electric Antique Natural Item Description

Here's a great deal on a lightly used and still in excellent condition 2020 Gibson J-185, with the original case included. Just some light pick marks around the top to be seen. The J-185 is believed by many to be one of Gibson's best acoustic instruments, yet it seems to be fairly obscure, much to the delight of devoted Gibson lovers. Originally released in the early 1950s and designed to be slight smaller than its larger companion, the SJ-200, the J-185 still offers superior performance and tone. The J-185 Original maintains unsurpassed balance of lows, mids, and highs, with equal response to every note on the fretboard. Acclaimed by many as the perfect body size and shape for any player.

Includes: Hardshell Case and Paperwork
