The legendary J-45 clearly defines the storied legacy of Gibson acoustics. Without question the J-45 is one of the most beloved and played acoustic guitars in the history of modern music and the icon of Gibson’s round-should dreadnought acoustic line ever since its introduction in 1942. Today it stands proudly as Gibson’s number one-selling acoustic and in recognition of this distinguished rank Gibson Acoustic presents the J-45 Custom – one of the most elegant and best-sounding versions of this classic model ever produced by Gibson Acoustic’s master craftsmen in Bozeman Mont. Combining vintage appointments with several modern features the J-45 Custom delivers the model’s renowned tone while adding a new refined appearance that complements its fundamental design including a brand new floral and vine abalone pearl headstock inlay designed by Gibson master luthier Ren Ferguson. The J-45 Custom is available in the model’s original Vintage Sunburst finish and Antique Natural.
