1969 Gibson J45
NEW ARRIVAL This is a great example of Gibson's iconic slope shouldered dreadnought, with one of the best looking faded cherry sunburst finishes I’ve seen. When you start playing it you realise why 60's slope shouldered dreadnoughts are among the most collectable acoustics around. It has a big sound, a rounded bass yet the subtlety to handle the most delicate playing styles, with a fantastic playing action it's a dream to play. It feels like it's been played every day of it's 50 years, has great looking lacquer checking, and just oozes character. This example must be from mid to late ’69 as it has a wider neck than the notoriously slim necks of the late 60’s Gibsons. It’s in very good condition, with lots of light playwear and lacquer checking, all original with one repair on the back of the headstock. It comes in a non original hard case.
