Description
The new J-45 Original 50s model features vintage-inspired details from Gibson’s golden age.
The classic materials of this workhorse include a Sitka spruce top and Select mahogany back and sides.
The multi-ply top and single-ply back are subtly aged, giving each instrument the look of an aged Gibson acoustic.
It’s fitted with cream button keys, 1950s tortoise pick guards and an LR Baggs® VTC pickup for a more natural, better sound when amplified.
