SOLD In the mid ’30s, Gibson luthiers decided to build the best-sounding, most powerful flat-top acoustic ever. The result was the Advanced Jumbo. What Gibson’s luthiers discovered was a resonance-enhancing, advanced X-bracing pattern that had not been used before....

1969 Gibson J45
SOLD This 1969 J45 has one of the most vivd cherry sunburst finishes I’ve seen, really eye catching, and contrasts beautifully with the black teardrop pickguard. Tonally it has a very familiar sound, similar to lots of 60’s and 70’s singer songwriter recordings,...
2019 Gibson Parlour Rosewood – £1749
NEW ARRIVAL The word Parlour in Gibson’s branding is a little misleading with this model. It’s actually a J165 body size which is closer to an L-00, only curvier in the lower bout. It’s still a very interesting guitar though, and unusual to have Rosewood back and...
1941 Kalamazoo KG-12 Oriole
SOLD The Kalamazoo Oriole was only produced between 1940 - 1941, as a more deluxe version of Gibson's depression era guitars, built from higher grade tonewoods than the standard Kalamazoo guitars. The back and sides are made from flamed Maple, and the binding is...
1953 Gibson J45

1957 Gibson LG2 3/4
SOLD This is a great example of a very hard to find model only made between 1949 and 1962, the model famously played by Arlo Guthry. As a 3/4 size guitar it doesn't have a huge bass response, but this allows the guitar to excel around the mid and treble ranges, and...
1938 Epiphone Olympic
SOLD This guitar is from Epiphone’s golden archtop age, when the company was still based in New York before they were bought by Gibson in 1957. 30’s and 40’s Epiphone archtops have long been considered among the best of their kind, and the Epiphone Olympic is now...
1963 Epiphone Frontier
SOLD When Gibson purchased Epiphone in 1957 there was already a line of great flat-top guitars in place. The FT-110 featured Maple back and sides and Gibson gave it the name “Frontier”. They changed the entire body shape to a square shouldered 16 1/4″ wide...
