Here for sale we have a Gibson J-35 electro-acoustic Guitar in Natural finish. Made in the USA in 2016, this guitar features a Solid Sitka Spruce top with Solid Mahogany back and sides and Multi-ply Top binding, a Mahogany neck with a 19 fret Rosewood fingerboard with matching bridge. Featured on this guitar are a set of Grover Open Back tuning machines, an Firestripe Jumbo pickguard and a L.R. Baggs Element VTC system with soundhole mounted controls.
The Mahogany neck sits comfortably in the hand, with a profile resembling a soft ‘V’ providing ergonomic thumb positioning in all registers allowing for easy navigation up and down the neck. The Rosewood fretboard feels pleasant under the fingers and provides a smooth surface for the user to explore, along with the 12” radius making bending and vibrato techniques a breeze. The dreadnought design fills the arms, providing a dynamic and responsive playing experience, making the user feel the resonance that this guitar produces.
This guitar has a well-balanced and dynamic tone, producing a warm and rich sound, with a strong and clear midrange. The Solid Sitka Spruce top andTraditional Hand-scalloped X-bracing contribute to the guitar's excellent projection and sustain, producing a bright and crisp high end that is well-articulated, whilst the Mahogany back and sides offer a warm and deep low end that make chords hum and chime. The L.R. Baggs Element VTC system allows the instrument's voice to be captured organically, displaying the natural voice of this guitar beautifully through an amplifier.
