About this listing
The Gibson J-45 Special Acoustic-Electric in Satin Natural carries forward one of the most recorded acoustic guitar designs ever made, while offering a streamlined build that keeps the instrument comfortable and accessible for modern players. If you are looking for the classic Gibson round-shoulder dreadnought voice with balanced warmth and strong dynamic response, the J-45 Special delivers that familiar character. The Satin Natural finish highlights the solid spruce top and gives the guitar a simple, workhorse look that fits the legacy of the J-45.The body pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides, reinforced with traditional scalloped X-bracing. This tonewood combination produces the warm, balanced tone the J-45 is known for, with clear mids and controlled bass that sit well in a mix. The slightly thinner concert depth body makes the guitar comfortable to hold while tightening up the low-end response. A utile neck with a SlimTaper profile feels quick and comfortable, while the rosewood fingerboard with a 12 inch radius and 20 frets provides a familiar playing surface for both rhythm and fingerstyle work.A traditional belly-up rosewood bridge with TUSQ saddle helps maintain strong sustain and intonation, and Grover Rotomatic tuners keep tuning stable. For amplified use, the L.R. Baggs Element Bronze under-saddle pickup provides natural acoustic tone with a simple soundhole-mounted volume control for easy adjustments on the fly. We like this model because it keeps the essential J-45 character intact while offering a comfortable build and reliable electronics that work well for stage, studio, or home recording.Specifications:- Body Shape: J-45- Body Material: Solid Mahogany- Top Wood: Solid Sitka Spruce- Back and Sides: Solid Mahogany- Body Finish: Satin Nitrocellulose Lacquer- Color: Satin Natural- Body Binding: Single-Ply Cream, Top and Back- Neck Material: Utile- Neck Profile: SlimTaper- Fingerboard Material: Rosewood- Fingerboard Radius: 12 inches- Nut Width: 1.725 inches, 43.815 mm- Nut Material: TUSQ- Scale Length: 24.75 inches, 628.65 mm- Number of Frets: 20- Inlays: Mother-of-Pearl Dot- Bridge: Traditional Belly-Up Rosewood- Tuners: Grover Rotomatic- Hardware Finish: Nickel- Under Saddle Pickup: L.R.
