About this listing
For sale is my Gibson J-45 Standard in Vintage Sunburst, purchased new in early 2026.It plays beautifully. This is an excellent example of Gibson's iconic "Workhorse" acoustic. It has the classic warm, woody J-45 tone, with a rich bass, clear mids and sweet, balanced trebles. It is wonderfully responsive to both fingerstyle playing and strumming, with plenty of volume and projection.It has been carefully looked after in a smoke-free home, always stored in its original Gibson hard case when not in use, and remains in excellent condition. The guitar is completely original and fitted with the factory LR Baggs VTC pickup system.I'm only selling because I've recently purchased a Gibson J-185, which has become my main acoustic. The J-45 is a superb guitar and deserves to be played rather than spending most of its time in its case.Supplied with the original Gibson hard shell case (OHSC) and all original documentation/case candy that came with it.Original Gibson shipping box also included.Included in the sale:Original Gibson hard shell caseOriginal Gibson paperworkGibson polishing clothHumidifier packOriginal case candySpecificationSolid Sitka Spruce topSolid Mahogany back and sidesMahogany neckRosewood fingerboardSlim Taper neck profileTraditional hand-scalloped X bracingRosewood bridge with Tusq saddleLR Baggs VTC pickupGrover Rotomatic tunersNitrocellulose lacquer finishSerial Number: 23045074Collection from Derbyshire is welcomed and preferred so the guitar can be inspected before purchase.
