Our Take:
Gibson's J-45 wasn't nicknamed "The Workhorse" for nothing. After its release in 1942, the J-45 quickly became known amongst guitar players for its huge, balanced tone and insane projection, and this modern version retains and improves on these integral qualities. The J-45 delivers a monster dynamic range that really covers the sonic spectrum, all within an iconic aesthetic that will make you never want to put it down!
Gibson's Take:
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 a tight punchy bass.
