While less well-known than other Gibson flat-tops, such as the J-45™ and Hummingbird™, it has long been favored by players in the know for its unique tonal properties and superb playability. As Gibson’s premier round-shoulder flat-top model, it is still in high demand among the world’s finest players.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow, Gibson is proud to introduce the Southern Jumbo 40s Original. Rooted in the 1942 original, it features forward-thinking upgrades that make it better than ever. It comes equipped with the new Gibson-exclusive, custom-voiced Baggs™ HiFi DNA™ pickup system. HiFi DNA offers unprecedented realism when amplified, delivering your guitar’s unique tone and every nuance of your playing to your audience like never before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Southern Jumbo takes everything you love about a good J-45 and kicks things up a notch with solid rosewood back and sides, producing a tone with deeper lows, shimmering highs, and room-filling projection. The top is crafted using solid Sitka spruce for touch-sensitive response with a wide dynamic range and tone that gets even better as it ages, and both the top and back are framed with multi-ply binding for an elegant visual appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Southern Jumbo 40s Original features a mahogany neck with a comfortable SlimTaper profile that makes chording and fast flat-picked runs effortless. The neck features a rosewood fretboard with 20 standard frets and iconic split parallelogram inlays crafted from mother of pearl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe peghead features smooth-turning, nickel-plated Grover® open-back tuners and has a bone nut. The peghead also proudly displays the vintage-style Gibson script logo, silkscreened in gold. The rosewood, belly-down, closed slot bridge features two mother-of-pearl dot inlays, a bone saddle, and TUSQ® bridge pins. A tortoise shell-colored teardrop pickguard adds another vintage-inspired touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin, the Southern Jumbo 40s Original is fitted with the all-new Gibson-exclusive Baggs™ HiFi DNA™ pickup system. This active system uses two lightweight sensors mounted on the internal bridge plate, each paired with an individual preamp, delivering full-bodied, amplified acoustic tone that lets the guitar’s character and personality come through without affecting the unamplified tone, with comparable gain-before-feedback to an under-saddle pickup. The system also includes soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls that are quick and easy to access while playing, yet remain all but invisible to your audience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its iconic design, rich, full-bodied rosewood and Sitka spruce-fueled tone, easy playability, high-tech modern electronics, and vintage styling, the Southern Jumbo 40s Original is a guitar you’ll find yourself reaching for again and again.
