Gibson J-45 2007, Ebony

Finished in Ebony, this 2007 Gibson J-45 offers a different look for one of Gibson's most enduring acoustic designs while retaining the warm, balanced voice that has made the model a favorite for generations. The spruce and mahogany construction delivers a dry, focused response with clear fundamentals and a rounded low end that suits a wide range of playing styles. A professionally reglued bridge ensures the instrument is structurally sound, and there is a superficial top crack below the bridge that is cosmetic in nature and does not affect its performance. With honest signs of use and the comfortable feel of a well-played guitar, this J-45 has settled in nicely over the years and remains an appealing example of a modern Gibson acoustic.
