For musicians who believe a guitar should sound as rich as it looks, the Gibson Custom Shop 1939 SJ-100 Murphy Lab Heavy Aged in Faded Vintage Sunburst offers a master-class blend of tone, tradition, and craftsmanship. Faithfully recreating one of Gibson’s rare prewar Super Jumbo models, this limited-edition acoustic boasts a commanding voice, refined details, and the warm patina of the Murphy Lab’s Heavy Aged treatment. Its thermally aged red spruce top is responsive and powerful, capturing the nuances of every performance, while solid mahogany back and sides provide that signature depth and warmth. The 2-piece maple neck, carved into a historic “Round” profile, adds stability and comfort, complemented by a beautifully bound ebony fingerboard with classic dot inlays. Appointments like the iconic fire stripe pickguard, ebony mustache bridge, stair-step headstock, and mother-of-pearl Gibson script logo celebrate the golden era of Gibson acoustics. Complete with a premium hardshell case, this guitar is a collector’s dream and a performer’s powerhouse — available now at Haggerty’s Music.
