Description

This 2025 Gibson '42 Banner J-45 in Sunburst is built as a tribute to the iconic wartime originals, and this particular example gets impressively close in both feel and tone. It delivers a strong low end, focused midrange punch, and crisp, articulate highs for a balanced yet powerful sound. The tone has an airy quality with plenty of headroom and dynamic range, making it equally responsive to a light touch or a heavy strum. With its full vintage-style neck and classic slope-shoulder warmth, it really stands out among modern Gibson acoustics. The guitar is in excellent condition overall, with some wear. The only modification is a strap button added at the heel. Comes with the original hard shell case.
