Up for sale, a 2007 Gibson J-45 Rosewood in 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case and hangtags. An upscale iteration of Gibson’s ever-popular workhorse dreadnought, this J-45 features solid rosewood back and sides (instead of the usual mahogany), an ebony fingerboard and bridge, gold Grover Rotomatic tuning machines, a piezo transducer undersaddle pickup, and a gloss Vintage Sunburst nitro lacquer finish. Ordered by Gibson’s Japanese distributor Yamano; Gibson’s USA-made guitars distributed via Yamano are often considered to be among their best, featuring the highest quality woods picked for Gibson’s discerning Japanese audience.
The slope shoulder J-45 design ensures great natural warmth and projection, boasting an X-braced Sitka spruce top and an ebony fingerboard on the one-piece mahogany neck. The treble response is particularly detailed and articulate, while the rosewood back/sides blend the traditional warmth and balance of the J-45 shape with rich, deep lows, shimmering highs, and a smooth, rounded midrange with an overarching clarity. It’s also equally rewarding both as a flatpicker and as a fingerstyle instrument. Weighing 5lbs 2oz, this J-45 Rosewood has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 12-53 bronze strings and easy-playing action.

There is a slender professionally repaired partial split along the bass-side headstock wing extending along the A and D string tuner posts. Cosmetic wear on the Vintage Sunburst gloss nitro lacquer finish is otherwise limited to light buckle wear on the treble side of the back, some pick scuffs across the soundhole, and minor finish scratches in the clear coat.
