(Goldtop)
The World-Famous WorkhorseThe J-45 is the best-selling Gibson acoustic model of all time. Nicknamed “The Workhorse” and first introduced in 1942, this iconic acoustic has become the cornerstone of the Gibson round-shoulder, dreadnought line. World-renowned for its full, balanced expression, warm bass, and excellent projection, the J-45 has been refined to carry this legacy to new heights. The Gibson J-45 Standard delivers a sound with incredible dynamic range, warm mids, and tight, punchy bass.
The Gibson J-45 Standard features a round-shoulder dreadnought body crafted using solid mahogany back and sides paired with a solid Sitka spruce top. The top is multi-ply bound, while the back uses single-ply binding. The mahogany neck features a fast, comfortable SlimTaper profile and is secured to the body with a compound dovetail neck-to-body joint for superior tonal transfer and sustain. The neck is topped with a rosewood fretboard that is equipped with 20 standard frets and adorned with simple mother-of-pearl dot inlays. The headstock displays the Gibson logo inlaid in mother-of-pearl and is equipped with high-quality Grover Rotomatic tuning machines, which, along with the TUSQ® nut, ensure smooth, reliable tuning with excellent stability.
