Gibson / Southern Jumbo Sunburst / 1946 / Guitar

The Southern Jumbo was introduced in 1942 as a more luxurious version of the popular but plain J45. The model found its place alongside the J45 and J50 in the Gibson range, and gained fame in the guitar world through Hank Williams Sr. The guitar is made from Gibson's premium wood, with a sunburst finished top combined with a mahogany back and neck. The guitar is further finished with 5-layer binding and luxurious split parallelogram inlays. 1946 was the first year that the famous Gibson banner was no longer used, so this Southern Jumbo only features the gold script logo on the headstock. This Southern Jumbo from 1946 has the typical dry and woody character that is unmistakable for the vintage Gibsons. Of course we can never get enough of this beautiful sound, so we would love to see these beautiful guitars appear at The Fellowship of Acoustics! In its more than 75-year life, this Southern Jumbo has had to endure a few things. For example, the side of the body has a repaired crack around the endpin, with a spot without lacquer. There are also two repaired cracks on the top, including the center seam. Furthermore, the tuning machines, nut and bridge saddle have been replaced, and the guitar has undergone a neck reset and refret. In addition, the guitar shows crackle and playwear that are to be expected with an instrument of this age, but these provide the beautiful character that makes these old Gibsons so popular!

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
