Description
The Gibson Custom Advanced Jumbo Anniversary Limited Edition celebrates one hundred years of Gibson flat-top craftsmanship with a faithful recreation of one of the most coveted pre-war acoustic designs ever produced. Limited to just 100 instruments worldwide, this exclusive release is part of Gibson Custom's Anniversary Collection, honoring five legendary models that helped define acoustic guitar history. Handcrafted in Bozeman, Montana, this Advanced Jumbo blends historic construction, premium tonewoods, and modern stage-ready electronics into an instrument equally suited for serious musicians and discerning collectors.
Built with a select bearclaw Sitka spruce top and rosewood back and sides, the Advanced Jumbo delivers the powerful projection, deep low end, and sparkling articulation that made the original 1936 model legendary. Multi-ply body binding, an abalone-accented top, and an elegant abalone rosette elevate its vintage-inspired appearance, while the gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish allows the guitar to resonate freely and mature beautifully over time. The long 25.5-inch scale adds clarity, headroom, and dynamic response, making this an exceptional instrument for flatpickers, singer-songwriters, and players who demand maximum acoustic authority.
Its mahogany neck is carved to the Historic AJ profile for a substantial yet comfortable feel, paired with a bound rosewood fingerboard featuring 19 standard frets and classic mother-of-pearl Diamonds and Arrow inlays. A bone nut, rectangular rosewood bridge with pyramid-style wings, bone saddle, and TUSQ bridge pins provide outstanding sustain, tuning stability, and tonal balance. Factory-installed L.R. Baggs VTC electronics faithfully reproduce the guitar's natural acoustic voice, with discreet soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls that keep the classic appearance completely intact.
The period-correct Cremona Burst finish perfectly complements the dramatic bearclaw spruce top, while the classic firestripe pickguard, gold Grover open-back tuners, and vintage script Gibson headstock logo reinforce the timeless aesthetic of this remarkable instrument. Every detail reflects the craftsmanship and attention that have made the Advanced Jumbo one of Gibson's most respected acoustic designs.
The Gibson Custom Advanced Jumbo Anniversary Limited Edition is a fitting tribute to one of the finest flat-top acoustics Gibson has ever produced. Combining historic appointments, premium materials, and exceptional craftsmanship in an extremely limited production run, it represents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Gibson acoustic history. Cream City Music is proud to offer this extraordinary anniversary model while these exclusive instruments remain available.
