Gibson J-45 A DJ 1966-1969

Gibson J-45 ADJ 1966-1969

Gibson's "J-45" ​​has been supporting players all over the world for 80 years since its release in 1942.This is a representative model of Gibson Acoustic, which has been loved throughout time.

This time we have a rare original "J-45" ​​from the 1960s!
Serials are marked "800352" and are marked "2".This is a piece that is believed to have been manufactured around 1966-1969 based on the timeline listed on the Gibson official website.

A pickguard with the "Gibson" logo and an adjustable saddle.Since around 1965, the head angle has been approximately 14 degrees (approximately 17 degrees before 1965) and the nut width has been approximately 39mm.This neck grip is easy to hold volleyball chords and is especially popular among Japanese singers.This late 1960s J-45 is loved by singers who are based on singing and singing styles, not only Yoshida Takuro but also Saito Kazuyoshi and Hata Motohiro.

It also has the traditional colour of the sunburst finish, the insulated style, and the adorable body shape of the round shoulder, making it one of Gibson's identity.

The woody, crisp sound that is unique to vintage, the dignified weather check is also very impressive, and the look of the Jacaranda fingerboard is also very interesting.The frets have been significantly reduced, but the string height is standard and it is not particularly difficult to play, so it seems that it can be used without any particular stress as it is currently.

It's only natural that the tone is significantly different from the current product, but the custom shop has been working hard to analyze the specifications and sounds of these vintage J-45s and reproduce them, and it was a wonderful piece that clearly shows that it's still difficult.
