Description

This 1963 Gibson J-45 delivers everything players love about a great vintage slope-shouldered dreadnought—just with the benefit of good repair to keep it going strong. Previously given a complete refinish along with a re-fret and a new bridge, it feels solid, responsive, and ready for stage or studio use. Sonically, it’s all classic J-45: that open, rounded, fat mahogany voice with a warm low end, punchy mids, and a sweet, singing top that rewards both strumming and fingerstyle. For someone chasing authentic Vintage Gibson character in a player-grade package, this J-45 offers the feel and sound of an original vintage workhorse. Comes with a HSC.
