MorrisrownSal Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 26" scale. This is the perfect guitar for Odell Beckham Junior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigKahune Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 . Looks very similar to the one that was in residence at Eldery for a coupla years and priced over $100K. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duluthdan Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Nice guitar, but the overspray is a deal killer for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichG Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Individual "bone bearings" instead of a one piece saddle. I think all the J200 of that vintage were like that but not sure. My 1939 J55 has them but I have seen J55's of the same year with a one piece saddle. Very nice. Thanks for posting. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin 1940D28 Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Gorgeous. I kind of doubt the modern opinions of the Rosewood origin of '30s and '40s Gibson guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the one had Elderly (which was discussed here before) had the same individual "bone bearings". . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliasphobias Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Forgive my ignorance but what is that above the tuners on the back of the headstock? A strapholder? http://www.stewmac.com/tradesecrets/newsletter/ts0055/ts0055a.jpg Could this be the long lost position #6? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pesh Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 26" scale? Didn't know of a Gibson with such; was that an older thing? The're 25.5" now, am I correct? Only eighty thousand notes...pocket money... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballcorner Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I ran vintage shops that carried things like '34 HD28s and Gibson Trojans. I promise you no guitar sounds like $80,000 or even $30,000. The cachet is owning something rare, or something made with woods no longer available at the same quality level. If you want an amazing sounding Gibson acoustic, find a banner logo 1943 J45 and I promise it will outshine this used Porsche, and still leave lots of cabbage for dinner.
