Description:

The Vintage Southerner is our short scale (24 3/4") slope shoulder dreadnought offering. It is the sound sought after for Texas fiddle style backup. It has also been a huge hit with Blues players and anyone in love with the old short scale Gibson dreadnoughts. This includes fingerstyle blues players and singer/songwriters, backup rhythm players, oldtime players and many more. If you have been impressed by some of the old vintage short- scale slope shoulders of the past such as a Southern Jumbo or J-45, you'll be blown away by this guitar. The bracing is double tapered for a warm complex tone with incredible power, focus, and dynamic range. Top: Sitka Spruce top, violin top purfling, tobacco sunburst, ivoroid top binding and rosette. Body: Genuine mahogany sides and back, ivoroid binding, translucent tobacco brown finish on sides and back. Neck: Genuine mahogany, translucent tobacco brown finish, Ebony fingerboard bound in black, Mother Of Pearl "doppler" style position dots, unbound ebony headstock overlay, SCGC logo, slim "old" style asymmetrical headstock design. SCGC vintage style nickel 18:1 tuning machines with ivoroid buttons. High-density bone nut individually cut to fit the neck. Short (24 3/4") scale length. The bridge is the old rectangular style.
