DESCRIPTION
The Gibson J-45 Standard delivers the classic “Workhorse” sound with warm lows, balanced mids, and strong projection. A solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides create a rich, responsive tone that works equally well for soft fingerstyle or full strumming. Traditional hand-scalloped X-bracing lets the top resonate freely, adding warmth, sustain, and overall dynamic character.
The SlimTaper mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard and 24.75" scale provides smooth, comfortable playability, enhanced by a TUSQ nut and mother-of-pearl inlays. LR Baggs VTC electronics capture the guitar’s natural voice with clarity, offering simple volume and tone control from the soundhole.
Finished in Vintage Sunburst with multi-ply binding, Grover Rotomatics, and a belly-up rosewood bridge, the J-45 blends timeless style with dependable performance. Complete with a Gibson hardshell case, it’s a reliable stage and studio companion built for musicians who want iconic tone and long-term craftsmanship.
