Gibson '50s J-45 Original Vintage Sunburst

Step back into the golden era of acoustic guitar craftsmanship with the Gibson 50s J-45 Original in Vintage Sunburst—a beautifully appointed instrument that channels the rich, warm character of mid-century “workhorse” guitars.

Crafted with a solid Sitka spruce top and select mahogany back and sides, this model echoes the legendary voice of its 1950s predecessors while delivering modern enhancements for tone and reliability. The antiqued multi-ply top and single-ply back binding lend an authentically seasoned look right out of the case, complemented by cream button tuners and a 50s-era tortoise pickguard.

When you amplify, the built-in LR Baggs® VTC system captures the natural resonance of the wood with clarity and presence. Whether you’re recording in the studio or strumming by the fire, this J-45 fits seamlessly into the legacy of great guitars—while turning heads with vintage appeal and modern quality.
