Gibson J-45 Min-Etune Acoustic-Electric Guitar Vintage Sunburst

The workhorse acoustic gets an updated set of tuners.




Nicknamed "The Workhorse" and first introduced in
1942, Gibson's most popular round-shoulder dreadnought guitar is
world-renowned for its full, balanced expression, warm bass, and
excellent projection. Subtle changes to the bracing of its
predecessor—the J-35—made Gibson's J-45 Standard one of most technically
advanced acoustic electric guitars of its time.

Min-ETune
Min-ETune
is a compact, battery-powered robot tuner that tunes your guitar in
seconds—and delivers 80-100 tunings on one charge. Adjust the tuning
pegs manually, turn on the Min-ETune to tune all six strings to perfect
pitch automatically, or select any of 12 popular alternate tunings
(including six you can program yourself). You can even adjust your
guitar’s tunings to match other instruments.

A guitar with
Min-ETune feels the same, looks the same (the unit mounts onto the back
of your guitar’s headstock), and plays the same. But most importantly,
it sounds the same—Min-ETune works by tuning the physical strings, not
by digital trickery that degrades your tone.

Save time and money
in the studio, keep the flow going onstage, enhance your creativity with
new tunings, and more. You take care of the playing—we’ll handle the
tuning.

Body Tonewoods (back, sides and top)
The
top of the Gibson J-45 acoustic electric guitar is made from AA-grade
Sitka spruce, while the back and sides are constructed from
pattern-grade Honduran mahogany, giving the J-45 guitar its world
renowned full, balanced expression, warm bass, and excellent projection.
Selecting the right wood, and the formula to dry it out are two of the
most pivotal processes in Gibson's guitar-building process. Beginning
with its first catalog in 1903, Gibson has assured its customers that
every guitar would be built using woods with "the most durable, elastic,
and sonorous qualities," and today's guitars from Gibson Acoustic
maintain that standard.

Pickguard
The
pickguard for the J-45 acoustic electric guitar is Gibson's standard
plain tortoise tear drop shape, which has been used on the J-45 since
its introduction in 1942. As with all of Gibson's pickguards, the
coloring, inlay, and binding are all done by hand.

Rosette
The
rosette on this Gibson acoustic guitar is a simple single-ring rosette
consisting of three-ply binding, adding a stylish, understated elegance
to the Gibson J-45 Standard.

Rosewood Fingerboard with Rolled Edges and Dot Inlays
The
fingerboard of Gibson's J-45 is constructed from the highest grade
rosewood on earth, which is personally inspected and qualified by
Gibson's team of skilled experts before it enters the Gibson factories.
The resilience of this durable wood makes the fingerboard extremely
balanced and stable, and gives each chord and note unparalleled clarity
and bite. The J-45 guitar's dot inlays are made of genuine mother of
pearl, measuring approximately 1/4" in diameter, and are inserted into
the fingerboard using a process that eliminates gaps and doesn't require
the use of fillers. The fingerboard also sports a rolled edge instead
of the usual right angle where the fingerboard surface meets the neck.
Gibson Acoustic's rolled edges are slightly beveled for an extremely
smooth and comfortable feel, enhancing the playability of the J-45.

L.R. Baggs Element Active Acoustic Pickup System
Gibson
Acoustic's J-45 comes equipped with the popular Element Active Acoustic
Pickup System from L.R. Baggs, which features a low-profile undersaddle
element—or transducer—that's proven more stable and durable than many
standard ribbon-type pickups. Combined with an onboard preamp with an
unobtrusive and removable volume control mounted just inside the
soundhole, the Element delivers performance not previously attainable
from an undersaddle pickup. Its sleek and effective design removes
unnecessary internal components to enhance the coupling between the
pickup and the guitar, and improve the sensitivity of the transducer for
a robust, lively, and natural acoustic sound with excellent dynamics
and delicate high end. The Element works with a standard 9V battery,
which is housed inside the guitar in L.R. Bagg's new "Battery Bagg."

Bracing
Every
acoustic guitar made by Gibson features hand-scalloped, radiused top
bracing inside the body, a feature normally found only in limited run,
handmade guitars. By scalloping each brace by hand, the natural sound of
the acoustic is focused more toward the center of the body, enhancing
the instrument's sound projection. The Gibson J-45 Standard guitar
features a variation of Gibson's "X" bracing pattern situated behind the
soundhole, with a set of tall and thin braces for the back, and
scalloped tall and thin braces for the top. This legendary bracing
design delivers a balanced expression, with punchy, deep lows, warm
mids, and clear, crisp highs. When pushed for more volume, the Gibson
J-45 projects a natural compression, which helps it blend nicely with
any accompaniment.
