Gibson J-45 Studio Walnut Acoustic Electric Guitar with Case, Antique Natural

The Walnut Workhorse

Undoubtedly a great bargain of an instrument, the GIBSON Modern Acoustic J-45 Studio Walnut (MCRS4SWLAN) steel string acoustic electric Dreadnought guitar, is handcrafted from solid Sitka Spruce for top and solid Walnut for back/sides/fretboard.
This versatile tonewood combination offers a beautiful vintage-style look and very unique warm, round sound that only mahogany can produce. Between Rosewood, Mahogany and Maple, Black Walnut offers a great frequency balance with thick and clear bass, intense mids and generous highs. Equipped with a Fishman Sonitone pickup system (volume/tone inside soundhole). Gibson case included. Known as “The Workhorse,” the Gibson J-45 body style is among Gibson’s most beloved. This particular workhorse features a superb blend of tonewoods, giving you rich, strong sound — day-in, day-out.

The J-45 Studio Walnut features a premium Sitka spruce top for presence, while walnut adorns its back and sides. Walnut is a unique-looking tonewood somewhere between maple and walnut in tonality, with a high-frequency clarity similar to koa. It’s a recipe for vibrant tone that will age gracefully as the years go by. The Gibson J-45 Studio Walnut’s fingerboard and bridge are made from high-grade walnut, which is personally inspected and qualified by Gibson experts before it even enters the Gibson factories. It’s a resilient and durable wood, making for a balanced and stable tonal foundation that gives every note and chord enhanced clarity and definition. The dot inlays on the J-45 are made of genuine mother-of-pearl, and are added to the fingerboard using a special Gibson process that eliminates gaps and doesn’t require fillers.
