Ebony Top Banner Southern Jumbo
This Gibson Custom Select 1942 Banner Southern Jumbo Reissue features a custom Ebony-finished top with Murphy Lab Light Aging. Gibson Custom Select offers instruments with distinctive specifications that are hand-selected by Gibson’s experts. These instruments offer a unique take on existing models, made possible by the Made to Measure and Gibson Custom Select programs. These guitars are designed using the same method as creating a Made to Measure guitar and are made available to customers who desire something a little rarer. Crafted in small batches by skilled artisans in Bozeman, Montana, Gibson Custom Select acoustic guitars offer something out of the ordinary.
The Gibson Southern Jumbo first appeared in Gibson’s lineup in 1942. It featured the Banner logo until the end of 1945. These guitars are commonly referred to as “banner-era,” made during World War II when there were material and workforce constraints. These guitars did not originally feature a truss rod due to the lack of metal that was available during the conflict. To compensate for the lack of a truss rod, the neck was made larger to withstand string tension better. Gibson acoustic guitars from this era were made by the “Kalamazoo gals,” who took the places of the men in the factory. Most of the workforce were previously seamstresses with excellent attention to detail, making these guitars highly desirable. The modern reissue of this guitar features a truss rod, giving the player added adjustability for changing environments.
There are a few key details that make the 1942 Banner Southern Jumbo different from the 1942 Banner J-45™. The back and side material changes from solid mahogany on the J-45 to solid rosewood on the Southern Jumbo. Aesthetic upgrades include split-parallelogram inlays on the fretboard and multi-ply binding around the top of the Southern Jumbo’s body. Today, both models feature a thermally aged red spruce top, the same Historic neck profile, a Gibson script and banner logo silkscreened in gold on the peghead, and open-gear tuning machines. The Southern Jumbo’s neck profile is modeled directly from vintage examples, which have a wider nut width than the typical J-45 Standard or other non-reissue instruments, measuring at 1.77 inches rather than 1.73 inches.
The only customization on this Gibson Custom Select Banner Southern Jumbo is the Ebony-finished top, which gives the guitar a sinister look. This customization gives this guitar a completely different attitude from the core offering featured in Vintage Sunburst. Included with the guitar is a Gibson Custom Certificate of Authenticity and a reissue-style hardshell case.
