Description
Since its debut in 1942, the Gibson J-45 has earned its reputation as Gibson's best-selling acoustic guitar, affectionately known as "The Workhorse." Its widespread appeal among musicians around the globe is a testament to its balanced, powerful tone and incredible playability. The Gibson Custom J-45 builds on these iconic features, blending them with visual elements inspired by the legendary Les Paul Custom. For those in search of a world-class acoustic-electric guitar that combines exceptional craftsmanship with eye-catching aesthetics, the J-45 Custom is a must-have piece.
Built with a mahogany body and a Sitka spruce soundboard, the Gibson J-45 Custom boasts a rich, nuanced voice with deep lows, punchy mids, and a bright, articulate treble response.

Musicians will also love this guitar's SlimTaper mahogany neck and smooth ebony fingerboard, which make for a sleek, comfortable playing experience, session after session.
The visual aspects of the Gibson J-45 Custom are equally impressive. Its ebony nitrocellulose finish, multi-ply binding, mother-of-pearl Custom Block inlays, and gold Grover Rotomatic tuners make it a breathtaking instrument that'll leave audiences in awe. For proper protection, it ships with a heavy-duty hardshell case, a necessity for transporting an acoustic guitar that looks this good.
Equipped with an L.R. Baggs Session VTC pickup, this guitar also excels in amplified settings, capturing its dynamic acoustic sound with the utmost accuracy.
