Overview

Timeless craftsmanship with the latest electronics.

With all the resonance of a larger guitar, the acoustic-electric JC-165CE from Gibson is perfect for players needing a smaller body profile for the precision of fingerstyle and flatpicking runs. As comfortable as it is beautiful, the CJ-165CE guitar has premium maple back and sides. With a Sitka spruce top and 1930s-style, wide-scalloped X-bracing for incredible tone. The graceful cutaway allows complete fretboard access, and Fishman Ellipse Aura system electronics mimic the sound of 4 different recorded guitar sounds using 4 classic microphones, with a sound hole mounted volume control.

Check the drop-down menu to the right to select colors and/or other options.
