⚌Reduced‼ Gibson J-50 ADJ Slope Shoulder Natural, 1968

⚌Reduced‼ Gibson J-50 ADJ Slope Shoulder Natural, 1968

The Gibson J-50 ADJ Slope Shoulder Dreadnought models were produced in tandem with the better known J-45, with the difference being the J-50’s natural vs the J-45’s sunburst top. This sometimes meant that the J-50’s used visually higher grades of Spruce, but the two guitars are otherwise identical.

Bourgeois Aged Tone Mahogany D Natural, 2013

Bourgeois Aged Tone Mahogany D Natural, 2013

The Bourgeois Aged Tone Mahogany D takes as its inspiration the pre-WW2 Mahogany bodied dreadnought guitars. The ‘Aged Tone’ refers to the use of an Adirondack Spruce top that has been ‘Torrefied’ to simulate the effects of natural aging on the wood structures, bracing configurations from those periods, and special finishes to replicate the look feel and sound of old lacquer. The Adirondack top shows a wider grain pattern often seen in Adirondack or Red Spruce.

Guild D-25-CH Dreadnought Cherry, 1977

Guild D-25-CH Dreadnought Cherry, 1977

Built from 1968 to 1999, the Guild D-25 came in several colours, and from 1976, with a Sitka Spruce instead of Mahogany top. Intended as a lower cost yet quality instrument, it quickly gained acceptance in the Bluegrass community. Reflecting this, its name was changed around 1978 to the Bluegrass D-25.
