kenschwartz Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Anyone know what model Shane Smith plays here? Looks like a cherry burst southern jumbo. Can't find another anywhere. What model is this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil OKeefe Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I may be incorrect, but I agree with you - that looks more like a Southern Jumbo to me than a J-45. I do not have any insider info for you, but sometimes artists will order a custom color, or will be seen onstage playing a prototype of a potential artist model. Again, I have no idea if either is the case here or not, but it might explain the non-standard color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenschwartz Posted August 3, 2023 Author Share Posted August 3, 2023 Yeah, no crown logo on the headstock and keystone tuners, made me think maybe it was something older/vintage I didn't know about... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuanCarlosVejar Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 It looks to a newer Gibson based on the vintage 50’s Southern Jumbo which did not have a crown . Lookinh through Google he has an old Southern Jumbo maybe he wanted a replica of it to not take the vintage one on the road all the time .

kenschwartz Posted August 3, 2023 Author Share Posted August 3, 2023 Yeah. Kinda like one of these with keystones and a bound split parallelogram fretboard. I want one, haha. https://www.gibson.com/en-US/Acoustic-Guitar/ACCWWH301/Faded-Sunburst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-minor7 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 Yes, looks like a custom-combo - and not a bad one.
