Great sounding Vintage Collectible 1957 Gibson J 45 for sale at Greg's Guitars. Good wood, period. This is another vintage slope shoulder Gibson J 45 that is not in mint museum quality condition, why ? Hell it sounds to good, and look at that fretboard will ya ! That has got to be one of the prettiest Brazilian rosewood slabs I have ever seen on a guitars fretboard. I professionally repaired back crack as well as the ever present repaired front E string /pick guard shrinkage crack, Bone nut and compensated saddle for increased intonation , this old Gibson has what we all look for tone wise. I feel lucky as I have several old Gibson's that would make most players wet their pants to find just one, come on in and get you some good wood. She comes with the crappy chip board case that was sold during this era.The Grover tuners that are on her are older replacement tuners and I have pictures that show the holes do not seem to have been drilled as a Kluson tuner with ferrel bushing will not fit the hole, Go figure....here s the fingerboard..
Stored in a smoke free environment ? Only played in the afternoon services? I think not ! This exceptional round shouldered 1959 Gibson J 45 offered for sale by Greg's Guitars has been toted from club gigs,honkytonks,recording sessions and general gather round pickin 'parties all her life and for a good reason, she sounds great ! With full well rounded tone and fine projection to stay out front this old girl is a players delight. From the private collection of one of the Southeast's renowned luthiers. Nice beefy medium jumbo refret, adjustable bridge (still in case) thankfully replaced with a more desirable Brazilian rosewood reproduction .Some dinks and scratches from all her years of glorious service.Case as seen is in good shape and decorated with stickers from around the world. Here is your chance as a player to score an exceptional Vintage 1959 Gibson J45.
