What We Think
Condition: Used, Very Good
SP Luthier Notes: A neck reset was performed. Cracks present on the guitar were sealed and stabalized. Fretwork was done. No further work required.
The Gibson 1951 J-185 is a beautifully balanced acoustic that delivers rich, articulate tone with vintage warmth and clarity. Its spruce top paired with a maple body creates a lively, focused voice with crisp highs, tight lows, and a clear, ringing response that stands out in any setting. The mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard provide a smooth, comfortable feel that invites effortless playing. Finished in a classic tobacco sunburst with a tortoiseshell pickguard, it carries a timeless, understated elegance. Open, responsive, and full of character, this J-185 offers a refined voice that feels right at home wherever you play!
About Manufacturer
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.
