The Custom Shop Murphy Lab 1942 Banner Southern Jumbo features the vibe of a vintage Gibson Acoustic that has been well cared for for generations. The thermally aged Adirondack red spruce top and rosewood back and sides have outstanding tonal response and superior playability. At home playing first-position chords or picking lead blues licks, the Southern Jumbo is a versatile instrument. Proudly displaying the « Only a Gibson is Good Enough » banner on the headstock, this custom instrument also includes an open slot bridge, an aged bone saddle and nut, and the classic 1.77″ nut width. It features Light Aging by the skilled artisans of the Murphy Lab. The Murphy Lab Light Aged finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of light mplay wear, giving it the unique character, vibe, and feel of an original example from the Gibson Golden Era.
