The appearance of a rosewood flat-top guitar in the Gibson line is a rare occasion. In Gibson's one hundred year history, only about a half-dozen production models were of rosewood. The J-60 Rosewood is the first new release of its kind in over 20 years, and its debut in 1992 was especially important because it came as a result of an overwhelming demand for a rosewood Gibson flat-top. The J-60 brings pre-war Gibson quality to a modern square shouldered dreadnought. It features a hand tuned top with Gibson's '30s-style "Advanced Bracing Pattern" which gives this guitar a volume, tone, and projection suitable for concert hall and ensemble performance.
