Beautiful Gibson J45 Studio Rosewood guitar, Burst, from 2023. Guitar show almost no signs of play,..very close to excellent condition,..no issues. I would list this as 'mint' but she has some very light strumming evidence on the pick guard.
This one sounds nice!,..very articulate with that wonderful Gibson tone. And it's very comfortable to play. This version of the J45 also comes with walnut and other tone woods. I've compared the rosewood with walnut and the rosewood wins easily,..much brighter, much more 'boomier', much more 'alive'.
The neck profile is what Gibson calls "Advanced Response" which is a nice 'C' shape that is neither too fat nor too skinny IMO.
And, this guitar has been professionally set up but Mark Erlewine (the best) here in Austin TX. The action is nice and low but doesn't buzz.
Includes Gibson case and candy.
Gibson serial Number: 21103046
