This is obviously a vintage 1966 Southern Jumbo in excellent condition, , , , or is it ?

 

Notice the following text. Has the ignorant seller just pasted a bunch SJ-notes from a description of the TV's somewhere.

The particularly tempting/interesting detail is what I see as a 11/16 nut - not the norm i '66.

First off, I think this is the correct link - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gibson-Vintage-Southern-Jumbo-Acoustic-Guitar-1966-/251353208782?pt=Guitar&hash=item3a85d197ce

 

And yes, looks like the seller pasted in info on a TV. But it's a nice looking 1966, with square shoulders and adj bridge. The nut width is reported at 4.5cm - isn't that wider than 1-11/16"?

By the way, I'm getting more and more fond of the ceramic adjustable saddle.

 

Put it back in my 1963 SJ a week ago and it sounds gooood, , , and very right and authentic (very old strings).

 

And with a pair of thick shims* in each side it isn't even in full top-contact.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*The ceramic is crumbled in both ends and thus not 100 % workable.
