Gibson CJ-165 CE Maple Acoustic Guitar with Cutaway and Electronics at a Glance * Classic Gibson Craftsmanship * Distinctive tone * Natural-sounding electronics Classic Gibson Craftsmanship Gibson's reputation as a fine guitar builder dates back to the late 1800s. Handcrafted since day one by some of the most skilled luthiers around, Gibson acoustic guitars have inspired countless players around the world. When you pick up a Gibson acoustic, you know you're getting the finest tonewoods, quality hardware, and incredible attention to detail - these instruments are built to sound great and stand the test of time. After moving from Kalamazoo, MI, to Nashville, TN (where Gibson electric guitars continue to be made), Gibson finally settled their acoustic operation in Bozeman, MT, where they continue making some of the finest guitars on the planet by hand. Distinctive tone The CJ-165 CE Maple gives you balanced, bright tone, thanks to its compact body size and premium tonewoods. It's solid Sitka spruce top features specially designed 1930s-style wide-scalloped X-bracing, which gives the CJ-165 CE Maple great clarity and projection for a small-bodied guitar. The maple back and sides also contribute to the full sound, and a sloping single cutaway gives you access to the entire rosewood fingerboard, which tops a maple neck. Classy mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays adorn the neck.
