It features a laminated spruce top with mahogany back and sides, a round-shoulder body shape, and a comfortable mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes the J-160E unique is its built-in P-90 pickup mounted at the end of the fingerboard, giving it a warm yet slightly gritty amplified tone more reminiscent of an electric guitar than a purely acoustic instrument. Unplugged, it has a mellow, somewhat subdued acoustic voice due to its laminated construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnown for its association with The Beatles—particularly John Lennon and George Harrison—the 1956 J-160E has become an iconic model, valued as much for its historical significance as for its unique tonal character.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48409323208959,"sku":"P009339S","price":5695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0489\/9300\/9827\/files\/1956-Gibson-J-160E-Jumbo-Acoustic-Sell-Your-Guitar-Imperial-Vintage-Guitars1.jpg?v=1776558670","url":"https:\/\/www.imperialvintageguitars.com\/products\/1956-gibson-j-160e-jumbo-acoustic-lefty-left-handed-conversion-sunburst-finish-w-hsc","provider":"Imperial Vintage Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
