The workhorse dreadnought adored by millions!

The J-45 dreadnought is one of Gibson's most beloved instruments, and happens to be a favorite among guitarists at Sweetwater. The J-45's full tone, detailed high end, and iconic minimalist style have placed it in the hands of artists like Bob Dylan, Buddy Holly, and John Lennon. Hand-scalloped X-bracing and a compound dovetail neck joint maximize the J-45 125th Anniversary's vibrations, for a singing response and balanced tone that complements the human voice and has a tailored sound to sit in a mix.

Highly collectible — only 125 in the world

The J-45 125th Anniversary looks back to Gibson's USA-made heritage and forward to its future with a special run of limited-edition J-45s. Each of these special J-45s ships in a commemorative hardshell case with a certificate of authenticity and special embossed leather strap.

Plug-in ready with LR Baggs electronics

The LR Baggs VTC system features a low-profile under-saddle transducer that's stabler and more durable than standard ribbon-type pickups. Its streamlined design enhances coupling between the pickup and guitar for improved sensitivity and a robust, natural, and dynamic sound. A discreet volume control mounted just inside the soundhole gives the J-45 125th Anniversary powerful amplification without detracting from its natural beauty.
