The Gibson CJ-165 EC is an acoustic-electric guitar that is as comfortable to play as it is beautiful to look at. And it delivers all the resonance of a larger guitar. The slightly narrower body size, 24-3/4" scale, and V-shaped set mahogany neck give the CJ-165 guitar an easy, comfortable feel for hours of effortless playing. The traditional Indian rosewood back and sides, Sitka spruce top, and 1930s-style, wide-scalloped X-bracing create incredible tone. Top and body binding accentuate a graceful cutaway shape that allows complete fretboard access. The Fishman Aura Pro electronics with tuner ensure flawless amplified tone. The CJ-165 EC is ready for any venue. Gibson includes a premium hardshell case with the CJ-165 EC guitar.
