1953 Gibson J45

SOLD  If you’ve always wanted the legendary early 50’s Gibson dreadnought tone, this is a fine example – It has the look, the feel and the vibe. The playing experience makes this guitar something really special, and the burst is one of the best I’ve seen. The bass is deep and mellow, the mids are strong, and the trebles are rich. The neck is chunky and the whole guitar resonates when you play it. The guitar is in excellent, all original condition – there are a couple of scratches on the top, and some pickwear above the soundhole – and has had a neck reset so the playability is great. The guitar comes a non original vintage hard case.
