On God, that is the best sounding acoustic I've ever heard. I've played everything from Ibanez to Taylor to Martin and back. I own a thin body pre ww2 Gibson. This is my favorite acoustic I've ever heard.
@@treatb09 I wish to own a banner soon. Preferably a southern jumbo. Currently I own a old '46 j45 and '68. Trying to raise the action to increase sound on my '46
This SJ-100 sounds like the best acoustic guitar ever made of all the history of mankind. Those prewar Gibson were definitely the top of the league, they still are the embodiment of magic.
1. My Little Ballerina - Brent Mason 2. Ring of Fire - Johnny Cash The first is one of my favorite songs, and you did a masterful job. Awesome sound, great job restoring the bridge, Joel!
What a gorgeous sounding guitar. Just perfect sound. It's amazing what's left in some of these vintage acoustics...almost 80 years old and still singing beautifully.
I listen to that with a headset on. I must say that fingerstyle fat is probably the most beautiful sounding guitar I've ever heard. I've had the honor of playing many many guitars over my years some dating back to 1934. That one has a sound that is phenomenal to say the least. Whoever winds up owning this piece of American history will be a person that is blessed.
You can see Mark totally get in the zone when he really likes a guitar. It must spoil a guy to play amazing vintage guitars every day. It must take really special ones to put him in that place.
I luv that sound , especially on that first song , that low E just makes my ceiling fan rattle , rad. Those pre war Gibby's just sound so phenominal , something to be said about 80 year old mahogany. Happy flat top Friday.
For all that was done to it , it sounds great . When you were finger picking , sounded like it had its own reverb built in , LOL .Kudos to your Luthier did a great job bring back to life a Great American Historical Guitar
THE GRACEFUL POWER AND RICH TONE THAT THIS FULL BODIED INSTRUMENT EASILY PRODUCES IS SUCH A FINE & SATISFYING EXPERIENCE THIS GREAT BOX IS BYE BYE I LOVE THIS DAMN CHANNEL I'VE GOT A 1905 PARLOR WITH A 9 INCH UPPER BOUT AND 11 3/4 LOWER BOUT THAT RINGS LIKE A BELL CARLOS GUITARLOS 90042
Brian Bianco THANK YOU BRIAN HERE'S AN ACOUSTIC SONG "SHE WON'T LOOK BACK" D from 'Sing An Honest Song' 1961 GIBSON J 45 1963 GIBSON J 50 UPRIGHT BASS www.carlosguitarlosmusic.com/carlos/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/02-She-Wont-Look-Back.mp3
This guy shows these acoustic guitars off better than anyone on TH-cam,all those guys with the long hair n beards like some extra out of Canned heat can clearly play but none of em hit the strings like this guy.
My favorite acoustic guitar is an SJ-200, but an SJ-100 is e very bit as good as an SJ-200. If I ever came across a left-handed one, I would grab it in a heartbeat!
I am a new subscriber wow you really connected with that guitar. I’ve owned a couple of super jumbo‘s contemporary ones from 2005 I think 2006 cutaways with the super 400 neck from the custom shop. They never had the tone of that cannon.
Is it on the website? I couldn't find it but it wouldn't be the first time i couldn't navigate a website. I saw the text say new website is up. It would be cool if the guitars do all get on the website and have the link for 'em near the top of the description box or a pinned comment with the link.
WOW, that thing just blew me away! Sounds BEAUTIFUL
Today's #FlatTopFriday setlist:
1. Brent Mason-My Little Ballerina (in honor of 2/22, a.k.a. Two Tutu Day)
2. Johnny Cash-Ring of Fire

The age of the wood, and the mahogany create the mellow tone. You are right on the sound though.
gibson's acoustic golden era was from 1940-46.
@@DieselBoatMan it's so great, ain't it?

When you are over 80 and all you need is a little neck work and bridge, you deserve to sing like this instrument
What a gorgeous sounding guitar. Just perfect sound. It's amazing what's left in some of these vintage acoustics...almost 80 years old and still singing beautifully.
This is by far the most beautiful sounding guitar ever.
I thought the prewar Martins, were the pinnacle of guitars. That SJ 100, just took that spot. Amazing.
The sound of that guitar is breath taking.
man, That first piece sounded astounding ! Well done, Mark.

Best acoustic I’ve heard and I’ve been on this channel for years!!
Flattop Friday is my favorite. It’s just absolutely beautiful. I can shed a tear.

Great tone out her.
Especially, finger picking

The cats out of the bag, the house is on fire! Second fave next to the Smeck you tickled.

AWESOME! 👍👍👍
God that thing sounds beautiful
Wow that thing sounds amazing.
Happy Flat-top Friday everyone.
Rest east Peter Tork, ur talents
will be missed.
Great work Joel!
Hit it with the flat pick.
Plectrum? Dang near killed him.
We don't use the word "plectrum," bud. You're going to have to accept it.
check out guitar pick maker for sale on ebay and make your own plectrums.
What happened to the 70’s fretless p bass?
it sounds very good.
That was beautiful work done on the Gibson it’s sounds I think better that original cos it has that low bass
Just love these WW 2 era Gibsons.
Thank you
Best acoustic Mark, nice find
Sweet!
Is it on the website? I couldn't find it but it wouldn't be the first time i couldn't navigate a website. I saw the text say new website is up. It would be cool if the guitars do all get on the website and have the link for 'em near the top of the description box or a pinned comment with the link.
Can someone plz tell me first song he played on that beautiful guitar i wanna look that song up
Would love to see Molly Tuttle playing this beauty its clarity would suit her way of playing
