Gibson SJ100 Walnut & Guild OM 140CE BOTH SOLD ELSEWHERE

What's Hot

edited April 2023 in Acoustics £
2016 Gibson SJ100 Walnut FS

I picked this up in the autumn and it's utterly lovely in every way, no issues with playability (or marks that I can see) there are three tiny indents under the strings and a couple of tiny scratches on very close inspection, comes factory fitted with LR Baggs Anthem pickup, hard case and the paperwork that came with it.  Strung with Elixir Optiweb 11s.

It's long been my aim to get a gibson acoustic and when I did a new guitar day thread on this I said said I would never need another acoustic, I certainly don't in terms of quality or playability but it has me intrigued as to what the other acoustic gibsons are like - hence trades/px for Gibson possibly Martin dreadnoughts considered.

Collection only from Portsmouth area.

Looking for £2,400

TRADED -Guild OM140CE.


Its from the westerly chinese made range;

solid sitka spruce top
solid african mahogany back and sides
Mahogany neck
Rosewood fretboard and solid rosewood bridge
bone nut
bone saddle
Fishman Sonitone GT1 pickup
25 1/4 scale, 16 inch radius, 44.5mm nut width

Comes with Guild hard softcase or soft hardcase I'm not sure what they call it!  There is a boo boo where a small bit of poly chipped off taking the paint, maybe 5mm diameter.  I painted it and filled the poly with super glue and did my best to level and Tcut.  You can see it up close but don't notice it when its hanging on the wall etc which was my aim.  I've photographed it as best I can.

Some small marks on the frets at the cowboy chord end but plays great acoustically or plugged in.

I paid £400 for it back then and I would take that for it but would have to be collection from near Portsmouth.

Strings are elixir 11-52s.  Not really looking for anything particularly at the moment but might consider trades.

    I offered to give her the guild but sunburst is for old men apparently.  She is the light of my life but she isn't allowed to touch the gibson!!
