Gibson is well known for a decorated past full of creativity, innovation and trendsetting body designs, like the J-45 Standard, aka 'The Workhorse,' which has graced stages and studios since 1942, and is one of the most iconic round-shoulder dreadnoughts on the market. The Standard Series offers Gibson's most celebrated historical and newer models built in the modern era. From small body to Super Jumbo body shapes, these time-honored guitars are full of expression, character and exquisite beauty.
This J-45 Standard pairs a AAA solid Sitka spruce top and all-mahogany body with traditional hand-scalloped X bracing for a warm timbre with extra low end and exceptional volume. The SlimTaper mahogany neck makes for a familiar feel, especially for electric players making a transition, and it's topped with rosewood. As another way of appealing to the modern player, the J-45 Standard acoustic-electric has been equipped with LR Baggs VTC electronics, giving you simple, accurate plugged-in play.
The J-45 Standard comes with a hardshell case.
