Bigg T Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 I am thinking I need a square-shouldered rosewood dred to compliment my AJ and J 45. Can't seem to get my hands on one that is "played in" here in Oklahoma. I know Janet Davis Music sells new ones. Doesn't seem like a bad value for Adi top and pick-up at $2400. I just can't make myself buy a new guitar. Anyway, I would appreciate any input from folks who have played a few of them. I am pretty much convinced my next guitar will be a J 60 unless ya'll can talk me out of it...

I've seen one J-60 go for $900 on local Craig's list......It kinda looks like Gibson's answer to the D-28......imaitation iS the best flattery......never played one
jrplefty Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 I currently am not a J-60 picker; however, I would gladly become one if you would send one my way.
roughdiamond Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 Mmm...maybe if it had nice maple b/s and neck with AJ bracing and was built light. Would be a definate runner for a try!
PickitPaul Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Isn't a J60 almost the same as the AJ, except for the square shoulders?
slimt Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 A J60 is the Most underrated Guitar.. But is a Real Nice Guitar... Ive owned a few of the early ones from the early 90s.. there are Used ones out there for alot less than New ones.. They really didnt take off like I think Gibson would of like for those too.. If I was searching for a Dreadnaught in a Gibson model.. I would probably buy another J60.. they also made these in Curly maple..
