Gibson J-45 Standard - goldtop
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, appearing on countless iconic albums. Its warm, expressive, and balanced tones have made it a must-have.
The all-solid-wood construction of the GIBSON Modern Collection J-45 Standard (MCRS45GT) combines traditional woods with a Sitka spruce top, a mahogany body and neck, and a rosewood fingerboard (20 frets). A classic combination in the best sense of the word, it delivers an excellent balance between projection, warmth, and clarity, with prominent midrange.
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).
Enhanced by an unusual and attractive Goldtop finish, this Gibson J-45 Standard is a thoroughly versatile electro-acoustic steel-string acoustic guitar that will appeal to fingerpickers and strummers alike.
