Overview

Lighter and lower priced than traditional Standard models, with the same great Gibson sound and feel.

New for 2019, the Studio Series from Gibson, which includes this J-45 Studio acoustic-electric, offers players an affordable version of Gibson's most iconic models, in this case, the famed J-45. Just like it's predecessors, it's hand-built with the same level of craftsmanship and detail, and is just as at home in the studio or on stage for professional gigs, as it is in the bedroom for workshopping your next song. The walnut-bodied, Sitka spruce-topped J-45 Studio is full of expression, character and exquisite natural beauty and comes with a hand-fitted dovetail neck-to-body joint, domed top with hand-scalloped X bracing and nitrocellulose lacquer finish with an Antique Natural top. 

Hardshell case included.
