There is a set of Waverly open-gear 'butterbean' tuners at the head, and no pickups or electronics.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hard shell case is not original, and contains the Certificate of Authenticity, truss rod adjustment tool, and key ring. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eModel History\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Advanced Jumbo was introduced in 1935 as an upgrade to the Jumbo, Gibson's first round shouldered dreadnought and predecessor to following models like the J-35 and J-45.  The Jumbo was built for only two years, 1934 to 1936.  Approximately three hundred Advanced Jumbo models were built until it was itself replaced by the Super Jumbo J-200 in 1940.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe advent of WWII significantly reduced guitar production, and Gibson focused on the J-45, the SJ or Southern Jumbo, and the LG series.  A very few J-200 models were built at the start of the war.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe word 'Advanced' ultimately seems to be a marketing term indicating upgraded appointments, advancing beyond the previous models. This is particularly the case with the use of Rosewood instead of Mahogany for the back and sides.   While some feel that it's also a reference to a 'forward shifting' of the X-braces towards the sound hole, catalog materials of the time seldom mention bracing patterns.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the Gibson Custom 1936 Advanced Jumbo hews closely to the specifications of the original models, there are some differences, primarily in the Rosewoods for the fingerboard and bridge.   With the 1935 introduction of this model, Gibson shifted from using Brazilian to Indian Rosewood for back and sides; however, Brazilian was still used for fingerboards and bridges until the mid 1960's.  On all reissues, only Indian Rosewood is used.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 94.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 94.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 26.1993%;
