The new 1950s J-45 Original model aunts vintage-inspired detailing from the golden-era of Gibson. Classic “Workhorse” materials include a Sitka spruce top and select mahogany back and sides. The multi-ply top and single-ply back binding are subtlety antiqued making each instrument look just like a seasoned Gibson acoustic. Appointed with cream button tuners, a 1950s-era tortoise pick guard, and upgraded with an LR Baggs VTC pickup for the best and most natural-sounding tone when amplified.
