The Gibson J-185 Century 12-Fret celebrates a century of Gibson flat-top acoustics with a unique take on one of the company's most recognizable jumbo designs. Finished in elegant Ebony, this striking acoustic pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides to produce a warm, balanced voice with excellent clarity and projection. Its 12-fret neck design moves the bridge farther into the center of the lower bout, increasing resonance while providing a comfortable, relaxed playing feel. A SlimTaper™ mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, bone nut and saddle, and traditional scalloped X-bracing round out a guitar that blends vintage-inspired design with the craftsmanship Gibson is known for. Complete with a Century Collection tweed hardshell case, the J-185 Century 12-Fret is an inspiring acoustic for players looking for a distinctive Gibson with timeless character.
