The incredibly fine detail of the vine fretboard inlay on this Gibson J-45 Vine Rosewood acoustic guitar is wrought in abalone and mother-of-pearl. Abalone purfling on the multibound top and rosette adds the perfect complement of luxurious hand craftsmanship. The 24-3/4" scale makes fretting effortless and allows for a more subtle timbre from the premium Sitka spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides.

From singing cowboy stars of the 1930s to rock and country superstars of today, many of the most influential artists have chosen Gibson's SJ-200, the King of the Flattops. Today's SJ-200 guitar from Gibson's TV Series is modeled on the classic early-'50s, maple-bodied model.

Through special arrangements with Gibson, we were able to turn back the clock to the mid-1960's, and that influential period of music history. The J-200 of the mid-60's featured a thinner, faster neck than what is used on the modern J-200. Movement up and down the neck is fast and comfortable. All internal bracing is scalloped by hand, not by a machine like most guitars are today. The top of the guitar is "AAA" grade Sitka Spruce, all hand selected, of course. The back and sides of this guitar are solid European Maple, just like the guitars of the mid-60's, with similar grain and figure patterns. The fingerboard is Madagascar Rosewood, with the traditional Gibson "crown" inlays, with the inlays in genuine mother-of-pearl. While the Madagascar Rosewood bridge maintains the Gibson "moustache" shape, the 60's J-200 uses the "paisley" style mother of pearl inlays, just as it was done during the "British Invasion" years. Even more unique, this pickguard is made from the original 1960's pickup mold to ensure even the smallest detail is period correct. Even the tuning keys are gold plated Grover Imperials, just like the 60's!Back in the 60's, just like today, Gibson finishes their guitars with an ultra thin nitrocellulose lacquer finish that actually blends with the top wood layers, and allows the wood to "breathe" and "open up" over time. This 60's J-200 features that lacquer finish, of course. The guitar is shipped with a custom-fitted case, and a Certificate of Authenticity signed by Gibson's General Manager of Acoustic Instruments. Our 60's J-200 is but one model in the "Acoustic Icon" series created for us by the luthiers at Gibson. A very limited number of these fine instruments are being made available. We currently have them available in your choice of Vintage Sunburst, or Antique Natural finish.

With its split-parallelogram mother of pearl fingerboard inlays, crown headstock inlay, and elaborate three-point tortoise pickguard with engraved hummingbird motif, the Hummingbird True Vintage acoustic guitar takes us back to the subtle glamour of this Gibson model of 1960. This beauty wears a solid premium Sitka Spruce top with special Cherry Burst finish that matches the finish on the first run of Hummingbirds back in 1960. Built to the Square Shoulder Dreadnought body styling that evolved out of the earlier, more rounded-shoulder profiles of guitars such as the J-35 and J-45, the Hummingbird guitar still a big-bodied flat-top at 16 1/4"-wide across the lower bout, and it carved a niche for itself particularly as a punchy yet smooth folk and rock and roll rhythm guitar as a result. It has been used by the likes of Keith Richards, Marc Bolan, Sheryl Crow, John McLaughlin, and Jimmy Page. The Hummingbird captures a measure of the pastoral whimsy and brave new horizons of the 1960s — along with a solid chunk of woody acoustic tone.The Hummingbird True Vintage Acoustic Guitar comes with a custom-made, period-correct case, and a certificate of authenticity.
