Default 2008 Fuller's 1939 J35 Reissue

Limited release Gibson round shoulder acoustic guitar built for Fuller's Guitars in Houston. Modeled after 1939 J35. Exceptional round/slope shouldered dreadnought. Solid Adirondack top with solid mahogany back and sides with hide glue construction. Bone nut and saddle with I think fossilized ivory bridge pins. Solid 9-9.5/10 condition. 1.77" nut - I believe this is the Luthier's choice neck. Neck is straight and is a little fuller than a normal C but not quite a full D shape. Minimal fret wear. No repairs - ever. Nice dry, deep Gibson sound. Plays like a dream and the pictures are indicative of the condition. Recent addition of K&K pick up and Schaller strap locks. Includes OHSC. More pictures upon request.

Update
#1During last cleaning noticed some hazing on the bass side as well as on the back bass side. Pics added.
#2 I replaced the original tuners with an identical set of Gotoh with cream buttons for aesthetics. The originals will be included.
$SOLD includes shipping and fee

Some potential local interest but nothing concrete. It's either this one or the all Koa Eastman AC822ce LTD.

Smile Heat is good

If I lived in MN I would want heat too! Heck, I want it in the Mountains east of San Diego!!! 3500 ft up it gets cold in the winter, but not like where you live.

These Fullers' reissues have a wonderful rep. Best on your sales!

Stay warm

Paul

2.22" outside E -> e.
2.17" center to center so I guess 2 3/16" or so

And thank you for the compliment. It is a great guitar - aesthetically and tone. I wouldn't be selling it if it wasn't for a major home improvement expense.

Looks like the market still isn't very strong and I am not inclined to give it away. Keeping it for now - which isn't a bad thing.

It's back. Also found some cloudiness/hazing in two spots. Added some new Gotoh's with cream buttons (originals included).
