Gibson Custom Shop J-45 Anniversary Ltd - cremona burst
Limited-edition model, available in a run of 100.
The Gibson J-45—also known as “The Workhorse” and introduced in 1942—is one of the most popular acoustic guitars of all time. This Dreadnought Slope Shoulder model has literally helped shape the sound of American music, having been recorded on countless iconic albums. Its warm, expressive, and balanced tones have made it a must-have.
The GIBSON Limited Edition Custom Shop J-45 Anniversary (MCRS45BCCB) celebrates the original model with superb woods, a Cremona Burst finish, and stunning cosmetic details (multi-ply binding and a soundhole in abalone).
The all-solid-wood construction combines traditional woods with a Bearclaw spruce top, a mahogany body and neck, and a rosewood fingerboard (20 frets). A classic combination in the best sense of the word, providing an excellent balance between projection, warmth, and clarity, with prominent mids.
Considered one of the finest spruce woods by master luthiers (Hauser, Martin, Santa Cruz), Bearclaw spruce enhances the characteristics of traditional spruce thanks to its superior rigidity (a remarkable balance between deep bass, rich mids, and crystalline highs) and its sumptuous appearance.
You’ll be able to capture high-quality recordings during concerts or live performances thanks to the now-essential L.R. Baggs™ VTC (volume and tone control knobs discreetly mounted on the inner edge of the soundhole).
A surefire collector’s item, the GIBSON Limited Edition Custom Shop J-45 Anniversary is a thoroughly versatile electro-acoustic steel-string acoustic guitar that will appeal to finger-pickers and strumming enthusiasts alike.
