This Gibson 50's J-45 Original Acoustic-Electric Guitar in Vintage Sunburst is brand new and includes its original hardshell case and manufacturer's warranty.
The new 50s J-45 Original brings the unmistakable character of Gibson's golden era to a modern acoustic guitar. At the heart of the design is the classic "Workhorse" combination of a Sitka Spruce top with Select Mahogany back and sides, giving this J-45 the traditional foundation associated with one of Gibson's most enduring acoustic designs.
Much of the appeal is in the details. The multi-ply top binding and single-ply back binding have been subtly antiqued to give the guitar the appearance of a seasoned Gibson acoustic, while cream-button tuners and a 50s-era tortoise pickguard reinforce its vintage-inspired character. Nothing feels overly flashy; instead, the appointments create the impression of an instrument that has already spent years earning its place in a player's collection.
Underneath the vintage styling is a modern upgrade for amplified performance. An LR Baggs® VTC pickup provides a natural-sounding amplified voice, making it possible to retain the character and warmth of the acoustic guitar when plugging in. It's a combination of old-school Gibson aesthetics and practical modern performance that makes the 50s J-45 Original equally appealing to collectors, traditionalists, and working players.
