Description
Description
This instrument is a limited edition model based on the J-45 Standard, featuring a red spruce (Adirondack spruce) top.
Compared to regular Sitka spruce, it features a sound that combines a robust, full-bodied core with a brilliant sparkle.
During the banner logo era when the J-45 first appeared (around 1942-1945), Adirondack spruce was used, but after World War II, the current Sitka spruce top became the standard specification.
As mentioned above, there are almost no noticeable scratches or signs of use.
It's in such beautiful condition that it's practically brand new.
Upon closer inspection, there are slight tarnishing of the nickel on the hardware and some paint shrinkage,
Nevertheless, it appears that it has been carefully stored and hardly used.
The sound is typical of an Adirondack spruce-topped J-45 Standard, with a gutsy, tight low-mid range that makes for an exhilarating and superb sound.
Why has such a musically appealing instrument been preserved in such pristine condition?
The sound is so amazing that it almost makes you wonder.
The finish is Tri Burst, which is not available in the current lineup.
Combined with the thick pores of the Adirondack spruce, the intense reddish burst color looks cool.
At this time, the J-45 Standard had a slightly thicker, slimmer taper than the current model.
For those seeking playability and a comfortable grip, this shape is absolutely perfect.
Equipped with the classic LR Baggs Elment VTC pickup, this guitar is ready to go for studio and live use.
This is a nice used item in excellent condition, and I would recommend it even to those looking for something brand new.
If you're looking for a masculine, round-shoulder sound, this is it!!
