Gibson / CJ-165 / 2008 / Natural / Guitar For Sale
|
Only produced between 2006 – 2008, the CJ-165 provides an alternative to Gibson’s medium bodied jumbos such as the J185. If you’re looking for big tone in an easier to handle package, the Gibson CJ-165 may be the answer – the mini jumbo size and slightly narrower body makes it easy to play while traditional deluxe Gibson appointments make it instantly familiar to look at. The top is solid premium Spruce while the back and sides are beautiful Flamed Maple, and 1930’s style, wide scalloped bracing deliver big tone. Only in production for two years, I think Gibson missed a trick – jumbo size Gibsons can mean the tone becomes overpowering, but on a mini jumbo it gives more controlled drive and clarity – not just a strumming machine but also a great picker. The guitar is in excellent condition, with a very comfortable feeling neck. The guitar has an active underside pickup fitted, with volume control mounted inside the soundhole, and comes in it’s original Gibson embossed hard case.
Glenns Guitars, UK 
Welcome to Glenn's Guitars here on Vintage & Rare. After many years in the industry, and having been fortunate enough to have worked in Hanks and The Acoustic Centre - probably London's two foremost acoustic guitar shops - I decided to do my own thing.
I have a passion for used and vintage acoustic guitars; nearly new second hand guitars because they can represent a bargain compared to the price of a new guitar, older and vintage guitars because they tend to have more character and can often become an investment.
You will notice when viewing my stock list my taste in guitars, as I only sell guitars that I genuinely like - and there are certain brands noticeable by their absence. I am a huge fan of older Gibson, Martin and Guild acoustics, but also more boutique brands such as Lowden and Collings.
I will consider part exchange if it makes your desired guitar a little easier to afford. I also offer a guitar finding service, if there's something specific you're looking for.
If you are happy to buy over the internet, I will send you as many high resolution photos and as much information about the guitar you're interested in as I can. If you can get to me - I'm based in Enfield, only 30 minutes from London Liverpool Street Station - you can always make an appointment with me and come and try some of the guitars out first.
I accept payment by Paypal, bank transfer, cheque and of course cash.
