Gibson J-45 Standard, Wine Red, Exclusive

The World-Famous Workhorse, Now in Wine Red

The J-45™ is Gibson's best-selling acoustic of all time. Nicknamed "The Workhorse" and first introduced in 1942, this iconic acoustic has become the cornerstone of its round-shoulder, dreadnought line. World-renowned for its full, balanced expression, warm bass, and excellent projection, the J-45 has been refined to carry this legacy to new heights. The Gibson J-45 Standard delivers a sound with incredible dynamic range, warm mids, and tight, punchy bass. Now available in Wine Red, it is equipped with an L.R. Baggs™ VTC under-saddle pickup and preamp system, making it stage and studio-ready from the moment you take it out of the included hardshell case.
