GIBSON J45 FADED 50S SLOPED SHOULDER DREADNOUGHT ELECTRO ACOUSTIC IN FADED VINTAGE SUNBURST (OCRS4FVS)

Has some shiny spots on the back where the finish has buffed up.

We have reduced the guitar as much as we can to allow someone to pick this up at a very good price.

Please see photos. In the close up photo I utilised the light blooming to try and get the marks to come across but in person they do not look so apparent. This is why I included the second photo.

The World-Famous Workhorse With a Beautiful Faded Finish
The J-45 is Gibson’s best-selling acoustic of all time. Nicknamed “The Workhorse” and first introduced in 1942, this iconic acoustic has become the cornerstone of its round-shoulder, dreadnought line.

World-renowned for its full, balanced expression, warm bass, and excellent projection, the J-45 has been refined to carry this legacy to new heights. The Gibson J-45 50s Faded delivers full-spectrum sound with incredible dynamic range, warm mids, and tight, punchy bass. Now available with a faded satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish that accentuates the guitar’s vintage vibe and equipped with a modern LR Baggs pickup and electronics package for studio and stage use.

A hardshell case is also included.
