Here for sale we have a Gibson J-45 Electro-Acoustic Guitar in Vintage Sunburst finish. Made in the USA in 2007, this guitar features a Sitka Spruce top with Mahogany back and sides, a Mahogany neck with a 20 fret Rosewood fingerboard and matching bridge. Featured on this guitar are a set of Grover tuning machines along with a Tusq nut and saddle, whilst an LR Baggs Element Undersaddle Active pickup system is employed with soundhole mounted controls for volume.
The Mahogany neck sits comfortably in the hand, with the SlimTaper profile providing ergonomic thumb positioning in all registers allowing for easy navigation up and down the neck. The Rosewood fingerboard with rolled edges feels pleasant under the fingers and provides a smooth surface for the user to explore, along with the 12” radius making bending and vibrato techniques a breeze. The dreadnought design fills the arms, providing a dynamic and responsive playing experience, making the user feel the resonance that this guitar produces.
This guitar has a well-balanced and dynamic tone, producing a warm and rich sound, with a strong and clear midrange. The Sitka top and scalloped bracing contribute to the guitar's excellent projection and sustain, producing a bright and crisp high end that is well-articulated, whilst the Mahogany back and sides offer a warm and deep low end that make chords hum and chime. The LR Baggs Element Active pickup allows the instrument's voice to be captured organically, displaying the natural voice of this guitar beautifully through an amplifier. A perfect example of why the J-45 has been favoured by singer/songwriters for generations and continues to inspire.
