Description
Marking a full century of Gibson flat-top craftsmanship, Gibson Custom proudly unveils the Advanced Jumbo Anniversary Limited Edition. Offered as part of a five-model Anniversary Collection, with just 100 examples of each instrument being produced, this rare and visually striking Advanced Jumbo is handcrafted in Bozeman, Montana, and designed to inspire players for decades to come.
This limited-edition Advanced Jumbo pairs rosewood back and sides with a select bear claw Sitka spruce top, delivering the recognizable voice of the original while adding a distinctive aesthetic. The back is outlined in multi-ply binding, while the top showcases multi-ply binding with abalone accents and an abalone rosette.
Its mahogany neck is shaped to the Historic AJ™ profile, and the bound rosewood fretboard carries 19 standard frets along with mother-of-pearl arrow inlays. The single-ply bound headstock features the vintage script "The Gibson" logo rendered in mother of pearl and is fitted with a bone nut and gold-plated Grover® open-back tuners.
A classic firestripe pickguard complements the top, and the rectangular, closed-slot rosewood bridge features pyramid-style carvings on the wings, mirroring early Gibson flat-top designs. It is set with a bone saddle and TUSQ® bridge pins. Finished in a period-styled Cremona Burst gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, the Advanced Jumbo Anniversary Limited Edition comes equipped with L.R. Baggs™ VTC electronics, including an under-saddle piezo and active preamp. Player-friendly volume and tone controls sit discreetly inside the soundhole, remaining unobtrusive to the audience. Each guitar ships in a Gibson Custom hardshell case and includes a Certificate of Authenticity.
Originally launched in 1936, the Advanced Jumbo was part of Gibson's family of larger-bodied "advanced" models that offered greater output, enhanced projection, and a richer low-end response. With only a brief production run, the model remained relatively scarce but earned a reputation among discerning players for its exceptional sound and performance. Today, vintage Advanced Jumbos are widely considered among the most sought-after and best-sounding acoustic guitars ever built. This limited-edition release presents a rare opportunity to own a commemorative Advanced Jumbo celebrating 100 years of Gibson flat-top acoustic excellence.
Secure one while these exclusive instruments remain available.

Q & A
Reviews

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
