The J-35 evolved from the Jumbo in 1936, a time when the Great Depression was still wreaking havoc on Americans. Gibson developed the J-35 to be a pared down model but still offer musicians a warm and balanced instrument. This Custom Historic 1936 J-35 delivers the look, feel and sound of our iconic J-35 as a seasoned vintage instrument. The Master Luthiers in Bozeman, Montana, have created a beautiful vintage-inspired instrument sure to be coveted by the most discerning of flat-top players. The 1936 J-35 features a Thermally Aged Adirondack red spruce top held by hot hide glue construction, a wide 1 11/16’’ nut width, open-slot bridge, bone saddle, and strap cream button tuners.Other specifications include:Body Shape Advanced JumboTop Thermally Aged Red spruceBack MahoganySide MahoganyBracing Traditional hand-scalloped Advanced X-bracing, red spruce braces with hide glueBinding Multi-ply top, single-ply backFinish Thin Finish Nitrocellulose, VOSNeck Material MahoganyProfile VScale Length 24.75" / 628.65mmFingerboard Material RosewoodFingerboard Radius 12"Number Of Frets 19Nut Material BoneNut Width 1 11/16"Inlays Mother-of-pearl DotsJoint Compound Dovetail Neck-to-bodyHardware Tuner Plating NickelBridge Rectangle, open slot, historic spacingSaddle Material BoneTuning Machines Strap cream buttonTruss Rod Cover BlackBridge Pins BoneElectronics Under Saddle Pickup NoneStrings Gauge 0.053, 0.042, 0.032, 0.024, 0.016, 0.012Case Period Correct CaseAccessories Includes Gibson Accessory KitCSRS3536VS4 lbs 2 oz#21264028For more information on this Gibson instrument, please contact us.
