NEWS: Gibson Acoustic Aaron Lewis Southern Jumbo
Check out Aaron Lewis’s new Gibson. Whether you’re a Staind fan or don’t even listen to rock, this looks like a pretty damn gorgeous guitar.
The Gibson Acoustic Aaron Lewis Southern Jumbo guitar is an exact replica of Aaron’s most treasured acoustic, his 1951 Gibson Southern Jumbo. As Aaron has said, “Those are the crown jewels. I don’t think I could go out in front of audiences and do the intimate kind of show I do without those guitars. They provide the perfect accompaniment to my voice. The deep resonance from each of those guitars — when you hear them ring out, with their sound bouncing off the walls of the theatres — it’s just staggering. Sometimes I think I don’t even have to sing. Let these guitars do the singing for me!”
Gibson Acoustic will produce 413 of the Aaron Lewis Southern Jumbo Signature Acoustic guitars, which will be available in three different production models. The first 13 guitars produced will be hand aged in the Gibson Montana Art Shop, to look and feel in every way exactly like Aaron’s original 1951 model. They will be personally played by Aaron Lewis himself, in live or studio performances, and the guitar body of these exclusive first 13 numbered instruments will be signed by Aaron Lewis. MSRP is $17,198. The next 37 guitars will also be numbered, and hand-aged in the Gibson Montana Art Shop.MSRP $8,598.
Each of the Aaron Lewis Southern Jumbo Signature guitars will feature a solid Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides. They will have replicated internal body bracings, “pearloid” parallelogram inlays, vintage replica, custom aged Kluson style tuning machines, vintage replica sunburst lacquer finish, and a custom engraved truss rod cover with a silhouette of Aaron Lewis and his guitar. They will come with a certificate of authenticity signed by Aaron Lewis. MSRP for guitars 51-413 will be $3,653.

Hi! I'm Peter Hodgson. I write for
That is one awesome guitar for a great songwriter such as Aaron. Too bad, Gibson acoustics are so expensive over here in Europe.
