Product Details
________________________________

This is a great 1955 J-45 with the original Scalloped X bracing.
It has all the goodness of a dry, woody Gibson. It has been set up, including neck set and re-fretted. The neck has also been oversprayed and the tuners have been replaced.
The frets have been leveled and are down just a bit, but have plenty of life left in them. No cracks or crack repairs.This guitar plays great, has an incredible vintage feel and an exciting sound that only this era of Gibson could produce.
Includes non-original hardshell case.

Product Overview
The Gibson J-45 acoustic guitar can be heard across decades of recordings in the hands of country stars, folk legends, singer-songwriters and solo instrumentalists. It is one of America's most iconic acoustic guitars. Its sloped shoulders and more mellow tone set it apart from Martin's legendary dreadnoughts. Those exact quirks are the reason so many have fallen in love with the Gibson J-45. Vintage specimens (especially pre-1970) are incredibly collectible, while more modern specimens are studio and touring favorites of working musicians.
