1980-1981 Gurian J-M D-Series Acoustic Guitar in excellent condition.
S/N: D2278
This Gurian J-M (Jumbo Mahogany) is a hand-built acoustic guitar crafted by master luthier Michael Gurian during the post-factory-fire era, produced in West Swanzey, New Hampshire, after the original Hinsdale factory burned down in 1979. This guitar plays and sounds beautiful, both plugged-in and through the active pickup. The previous owner's purchase receipt refers to it as a custom "Paul Simon"- not suggesting that Simon owned the guitar, but that the neck is wider like the 70's Gurians Simon had custom ordered, making them optimal for finger-picking. Typical of the D-Series, this guitar features the full "Gurian" script logo on the headstock rather than the earlier single "G" logo. This guitar shows some minor signs of wear on its body, such as cracks in the finish, typical of a well-loved guitar its age (see photographs).
