The Greatest Acoustic Gibson Ever Made? 1952 Gibson J-185

Live demo recorded at PREMIER GUITARS in Sydney The Gibson J-185. The Smaller brother of the famous J-200. A lesser-known acoustic from Gibson, that is argued by many to be the greatest acoustic guitar Gibson ever made. The J-185 was designed to offer guitarists a different sound and feel to the J-200. The slightly smaller body and shorter 24 ¾” scale length exuded a warmth and balance that the big, bellowing J-200 did not have. The maple back and sides with sitka spruce top help retain top end detail. The result was a beautifully balanced tone right up and down the neck, with a richness and timbre that can only be regarded as exceptional. Only 918 examples of this guitar were made from 1951 to 1959, making an original J-185 exceptionally rare. Unfortunately, the first digit of the serial number on the badge has been torn off, making dating this guitar complicated. However, it is fair to say that, with its remaining serial digits, along with its 19 frets, scalloped bracing and white badge that this J-185 was one of the earlier examples made in 1952. This guitar is in great condition. Plenty of honest checking all over the body and headstock, however rather minimal wear on the back of the neck indicates that this guitar hasn’t been played all that much. The frets are also original. More information about this guitar can be found here: https://www.premierguitars.com.au/pro...
