Description

In an era of uncertainty, Gibson introduced a groundbreaking line of "advanced" instruments, including the remarkable Advanced Jumbo. Produced in limited numbers between 1936 and 1939, this exceptional guitar remained a hidden gem despite its outstanding tone and playability. Now, Gibson Custom proudly revives the legacy of this rare classic with the 1936 Advanced Jumbo, bringing its rich sound and vintage craftsmanship to a new generation of players.

  • Murphy Lab Heavy Aged finish for authentic vintage wear and patina

  • Waverly open-back tuners for period-correct styling and tuning stability
  • Single-ply binding on top and back for a vintage-inspired appearance
