RichG Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I knew I'd regret it, but there was one at Russo when I was there. I didn't take it down and try it. I did try the J35. I knew somebody would ask, and I blew my chance to be an expert, again Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorrisrownSal Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I may go to Russo's this weekend and will try it if I do. Love the idea and the simple appointments. Wonder what the bracing is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnneS Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 This looks interesting - http://www2.gibson.com/Products/Acoustic-Instruments/Super-Jumbo/Gibson-Acoustic/1941-SJ-100.aspx Anybody find one of these yet? Mahogany B/S jumbo - hard for me not to be curious. Tried one today at a Sam Ash. Didn't do anything for me- was kinda boring, or confused somehow, like it doesn't know what it wants to be when it grows up. Loved the L-00 TV, tho, which was fun because I saw Rodney (and that Emmylou person) in concert last night, and man! His '32 (I think) was the star of the show. And that's saying something because the show was superb, all around. The pickguard placement really bugged me on both models; I realize it's only a cosmetic preference, but it's aggravating anyway, and that's a fact. Still, even if I had the $$ for the L-00, I think I'd keep saving up for something vintage... Missed trying the new J-35 b/c it is supposed to arrive tomorrow but the store is 2 hours away. And that's all I know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEngel Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 One in stock at the moment. Reaction seems to be very positive. Mahogany Jumbos are a treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
