Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Very Good 

Fantastic example of the model!  What can't you do on it?  Strumming, soloing, flatpicking, fingerpicking--the model has been known as one of the most versatile available for good reason, and it shows with this one.  The previous owner played the tar out of it but kept it well, too--after 5 new frets and a full dress on the rest from the luthier, this worn in beauty is ready to get to work!

From Gibson Guitars

The J-45 is Gibson's best-selling acoustic of all time. Nicknamed "The Workhorse" and first introduced in 1942, this iconic acoustic has become the cornerstone of its 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.
