Gibson J45 50's Faded 2022 Faded Sunburst
Gibson J-45 Acoustic Guitar
The slope-shouldered workhorse of the Gibson lineup, the J-45 has been around since 1942 and is considered by many to be an essential member of any serious acoustic player’s arsenal. The Sitka spruce top over mahogany sides and back gives it the perfect balance of presence and warmth. The 24.75” scale makes the J-45 a bit easier to play than many dreadnoughts, with no loss of power.
The new faded vintage sunburst finish offers a smooth, easy-maintenance matte surface. The onboard LR Baggs VTC acoustic pickup system includes unobtrusive volume and tone controls mounted just inside the soundhole. Known for its natural acoustic sound, Baggs’ systems provide great dynamic range and delicate high-end.
The J-45 produces plenty of low-end punch, but not at the expense of mids and highs—perfect for recording and live use. A hardshell case is included.
