Solid Sitka spruce top and solid curly maple body.
Solid jumbo
The Gibson J-185 Rosanne Cash delivers a rich, articulate tone with remarkable depth and projection. The torrefied Sitka spruce top ensures a crisp, responsive high end, while the solid flamed maple back and sides offer a long sustain and focused midrange – perfect for both delicate fingerpicking and bold strumming. The jumbo body design produces outstanding volume and low-end response, making it an ideal choice for live performances or studio recordings alike.
The ergonomic neck profile allows for smooth playing.
628.7 mm scale length
With a 628.7 mm (24.75") scale length, this acoustic guitar offers a smoother, more forgiving playing experience. The slightly shorter scale requires less finger pressure, making complex chord voicings and barre shapes easier to manage. The slim mahogany neck, shaped to Gibson’s slim taper profile, allows for fast, fluid transitions, while the rosewood fingerboard offers a natural, velvety playing surface. A nut width of 43.8 mm provides ample string spacing for fingerstyle players without compromising chording comfort. Gold Gotoh tuners ensure smooth, reliable tuning stability.
The L. R. Baggs VTC is a professional pickup system.
L. R. Baggs VTC
Perfectly suited for the stage, the Rosanne Cash J-185 features a factory-installed L.R. Baggs VTC pickup system. This premium undersaddle pickup captures the guitar’s natural acoustic nuances with stunning clarity and balance. With discreet volume and tone controls mounted inside the soundhole, players can easily tailor their tone to any performance setting without disrupting the guitar’s aesthetics. Whether on stage or in the studio, the VTC system delivers a warm, transparent output that maintains the instrument’s organic character.
The custom pickguard makes the guitar a real collector's item.
Breathtaking design
Visually, the Rosanne Cash J-185 is every bit as inspiring as it sounds. Finished in a radiant Heritage Cherry Sunburst, the guitar boasts mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays, lending the rosewood fingerboard a refined, classic look. The custom-designed Cash tortoise pickguard, adorned with subtle floral and hummingbird motifs, adds a personal and artistic flourish, making the instrument truly one of a kind. Every detail – from the gloss finish to the custom inlays – reflects masterful craftsmanship and timeless elegance.
