Description

This 1946 J-45 is a vintage Gibson with unbelievable tone and mojo to match. Its low end growls without losing any of its high end clarity, and its sound has opened up in a way only well-loved vintage Gibsons can. It's been through a lot of high quality repairs (find the full list under Modifications/Repairs) to make it playable for years to come, most notably a refret and neck reset. Its neck is a substantial size, comparable to Gibsons of the time period, but still comfortable and accessible.

Includes a vintage 70s Gibson hard shell case.
