The Gibson J-35 Reissue is a beautifully faithful return to a classic round-shoulder design, delivering warm, woody tone with vintage depth and character. Its thermally aged red spruce top, paired with mahogany back and sides, produces a rich, open voice with smooth lows, focused mids, and a dry, articulate response. Hand-scalloped bracing enhances its dynamic feel, making it responsive and expressive across a wide range of playing styles. The historic-profile mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard offer a comfortable, familiar playing experience. Finished in a thin VOS nitro, it captures the look and feel of a well-loved original with a voice that feels instantly at home!
The J-35 evolved from the Jumbo in 1936, a time when the Great Depression was still wreaking havoc on Americans. Gibson developed the J-35 to be a pared down model but still offer musicians a warm and balanced instrument. This Custom Historic 1936 J-35 delivers the look, feel and sound of our iconic J-35 as a seasoned vintage instrument. The Master Luthiers in Bozeman, Montana, have created a beautiful vintage-inspired instrument sure to be coveted by the most discerning of flat-top players. The 1936 J-35 features a Thermally Aged Adirondack red spruce top held by hot hide glue construction, a wide 1.77’’ nut width, open-slot bridge, bone saddle, and strap cream button tuners.
Today's Gibson electric guitars represent the history as well as the future of the electric guitar. The models whose designs have become classics-the ES-175, ES-335, Flying V, Explorer, Firebird, SGs and Les Pauls-are a testament to Gibson's wide appeal, spanning more than four decades of music styles. Gibson's close relationship with musicians is manifest in endorsement models from King, Atkins and jazz greats Howard Roberts and Herb Ellis, plus new Les Pauls made to the personal specifications of rock stars Jimmy Page and Joe Perry. In 1994, Gibson's Centennial year, the new Nighthawk model won an industry award for design, setting the stage for a second hundred years of Gibson quality and innovation.
