Gibson / Super 400 Premier Limited Historic RI 1999 / 1939 / Guitar

Gibson Super 400 Premier 1939 Limited Historic Reissue from 1999. Gibson's Super 400 was first introduced in 1934 and enhanced later in 1939. This 18" wide archtop guitar quickly became the new standard for large-body jazz guitars because it possesed the cutting power to project through any big-band horn section. The Super 400 Premier or 400P was introduced in 1939. This third version of the Super 400 featured a Venetian cutaway which meant a smaller neck block, shorter pickguard and shallower neck set than the first two iterations of the Super 400 design. The original Super 400 Premier was made from 1939 to 1941 - with some later models being shipped in 1943. In 1993 Gibson's Custom, Art and Historic division reissued the Super 400 as the 1939 Super 400 model - in both cutaway (Premier) and non-cutaway versions as part of the Gibson Historic Collection. This specific instrument is one of the last ones made as production ceased in 1999. This historically correct reissue was crafted using a book-matched and highly flamed maple back, highly flamed maple rims and a solid tap-tuned spruce top. Additions include professionally installed Kent Armstrong floating pickup and gold tune-o-matic bridge. Condition is excellent with beautiful weather checking and other very minor signs of use. Included is the original hardshell case and certificate of authenticity.

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.
