Introducing the Gibson J-45 Standard: The Ultimate Acoustic Guitar for Guitar World Australia

If you're looking for a guitar that has it all, look no further than the Gibson J-45 Standard. This round-shoulder dreadnought is known as "The Workhorse" for a reason - its balanced tone, warm bass, and excellent projection will bring your music to life. With a solid Sitka spruce top and a solid mahogany body, the J-45 Standard is packed with the tonewoods you need for incredible sound. And, if you're playing live, the included LR Baggs VTC pickup system will ensure that every nuance of your tone is transferred to your PA or amp.

The Perfect Tonewoods for Unmatched Tone Gibson's J-45 body style is a classic for a reason, and the J-45 Standard takes it to the next level with a perfect blend of tonewoods. The solid Sitka spruce top provides a strong presence, while the premium mahogany back and sides add warm, round sound. Traditional hand-scalloped X-bracing, a compound dovetail neck joint, and multi-ply top and single-ply back body binding complete the package.

Playable Neck and Fingerboard for Optimal Performance The Gibson J-45 Standard's fingerboard is made from high-grade rosewood, which is personally inspected and approved by Gibson experts. This durable wood provides a balanced and stable fingerboard that gives each chord and note enhanced clarity and bite. The dot inlays are made from genuine mother-of-pearl and added to the fingerboard using a special Gibson process that eliminates gaps and doesn't require fillers. The fingerboard's rolled edge is lightly beveled, providing an extra level of smooth playability.

Unbelievable Sound Onstage The Gibson J-45 Standard comes equipped with the popular LR Baggs VTC acoustic pickup system, a favorite among acoustic guitarists. The low-profile under-saddle transducer enhances the coupling between the pickup and the guitar, resulting in a robust, lively, and natural acoustic sound with excellent dynamics and delicate high end. The onboard preamplifier with an unobtrusive and removable volume control is mounted just inside the soundhole, giving you the amplification you need without sacrificing tone or convenience.

In conclusion, the Gibson J-45 Standard is a must-have for any guitar player looking for a versatile and powerful acoustic guitar. With its choice tonewoods, playable neck and fingerboard, and amazing sound onstage, you can't go wrong with this classic workhorse. Get yours today from Guitar World Australia!
