Gibson / J-45 / 1960 / Guitar
|
The Gibson J-45 is the most famous of the Gibson models. It is the so called workhorse among the Gibson guitar family – it will never let you down, always ready when you need it.
Bob Dylan, John Hiatt, Brad Paisley … the list of the famous players is very long.
This Gibson J-45 1960 is a real gem with character in appearance and especially in sound. Here you get the ultimate vintage sound.
We personally like the sound of this Gibson because it has a very strong vintage touch. The sound is deep and the woods resonate just great. The basses have a lovely growling and it is the perfect guitar for recording, stage or personal use at home.
It plays perfectly and is wonderfully adjusted. Low action, straight neck and well preserved frets.
As you can see in the pictures the guitar has a very nice vintage look. It is a guitar which has been played and nicely aged. It has 2 smaller repairs on the top and the back of the headstock has been painted in black (perhaps to cover another repair).
The guitar plays ver nicely and has a low action and a great setup.
