2021 Gibson 1950’s J45 – £1799

NEW ARRIVAL With the 1950’s J45, Gibson have accurately recreated one of their most famous models with lighter bracing, a slightly fuller feeling neck, and period correct features. The tobacco sunburst really harks back to their heyday, capturing the classic look. Tonally it hints at it’s history, but has an unmistakable modern vibe, strong attack, full mids, and a well rounded bass response. At just one year old, the guitar’s in good condition, with one visible ding on the bottom edge – Theres a slight depression in the wood, but no visible crack on the inside. It has a very easy playing neck with comfortable action, and is an absolute pleasure to play. It has an LR Baggs active pickup system fitted, with tone and volume controls mounted inside the soundhole, and comes in it’s original Gibson embossed hard case.
