USED Gibson 1942 Banner J-45 Reissue
The allure and legend of the Gibson J-45 lives on in the new Custom Historic 1942 Banner J-45. Inspired by the holy grail of vintage acoustic instruments, luthiers in Montana meticulously crafted a J-45 just like the most popular and celebrated version in structure and components. The new 1942 Banner J-45 includes a Thermally Aged Adirondack red spruce top hand-sprayed with a historic-style burst, hot hide glue top bracing for better tonal response, and a bone nut and saddle.
This is a USED instrument in EXCELLENT condition. The top could use some buffing, other than that it sounds and plays better than most acoustics. If you have any questions, stop by the shop or give us a call!
