Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built as a right-handed, six-string Gibson Historic AJ, the 1936 Advanced Jumbo pairs a thermally aged red spruce top with rosewood back and sides. Traditional hand-scalloped Advanced X-bracing uses red spruce braces and hide glue, while the 25.5-inch scale, 1.72-inch nut, and 19 frets define its playing layout. The Vintage Sunburst guitar has a thin VOS nitrocellulose finish, Waverly tuners, and a bone nut and saddle. It is an acoustic-only instrument, with no pickup or preamp listed.
