From the first year of production we are proud to offer a Gibson Advanced Jumbo from the original owner. This guitar was ordered from Gibson in 1936 by a man who lived in Mississippi. He took delivery in early 1937. His intention was to play this guitar Hawaiian style with a metal nut extender on top of the original nut. He played the guitar for many years this way and took great care of the instrument. Since he played Hawaiian style he left NO PICK MARKS on the top and NO FRET WEAR at all. When he died the guitar was given to his son who married a British women and moved to England. The guitar remained there all this time basically unplayed. The guitar has no repairs and is 100% original including the red line case, picks etc. The action is a bit high but the neck has never been reset. The future owner my choose to leave it this way or have their personal luthier reset the neck. It is perhaps the cleanest Advanced Jumbo available on the planet. It is complete with the original red line case and all of the accouterments in the case pocket. Guitars in this condition seldom come for sale. This is a premium offering.
