Gibson Parlor Acoustic Guitar w/ Cutaway & Pickup (Rosewood Burst) inc Hard Case

The Gibson Parlor Rosewood EC is a small-bodied acoustic cutaway guitar with lots of personality and an even bigger sound. With a small body profile reminiscent of a pared-down SJ-200, it has classic Gibson acoustic visual appeal, and the smaller body size makes it extremely comfortable and easy to hold and play. It produces superior warmth and a balanced tone thanks to Gibson’s exceptional handcrafted construction techniques, including a dovetail neck-to-body joint, a radiused top, and traditional scalloped X-bracing. The solid Sitka spruce top is beautifully finished in gloss nitrocellulose lacquer.

The solid rosewood back and sides are finished in satin nitrocellulose lacquer and feature multi-ply top and single-ply back binding. The cutaway body design provides excellent access to the entire length of the fretboard, while the satin nitrocellulose lacquer-finished mahogany neck features an Advanced Response profile that many players find perfectly balanced. It’s not too slender or too chunky, sitting comfortably in the hand for most players. The neck is topped with a bound rosewood fretboard with an easy-playing 16” radius.

The fretboard is equipped with 19 standard frets and adorned with single parallelogram mother-of-pearl inlays. The Gibson headstock logo is also inlaid in mother-of-pearl. The nut, saddle, and bridge pins are TUSQ®, which, along with the smooth-turning gold-plated Grover® Mini Rotomatic® tuners, ensure rock-solid tuning stability. The rosewood bridge features Gibson’s traditional belly-up orientation, while the pickguard is faux tortoise. The Gibson Parlor Rosewood EC comes outfitted with an L.R. Baggs™ VTC under-saddle piezo pickup and active preamp with conveniently located volume and tone controls hidden at the edge of the soundhole, making it stage and studio ready straight out of the included modern hardshell case.
