Gibson J45 - Single pre-70's X bracing.
There are guitars which are great and then there are Kings of the great guitars, and this is most certainly a King of Gibson's J45's. Serial number: A few particulars of this guitar: It is confirmed by Gibson (documented) that this beautiful sunburst J45 is in fact from but was most probably from reaching in to ,This is evidenced by the pre- 'single X bracing pattern'. The next interesting factor with this guitar is that the centre of the bracing is about 2.1cm from the sound hole - very close, which is allowing for the most wonderful bass tonal quality. The guitar is crack and damage free, other than the road worn condition, which for me is awesome! The sunburst on this guitar is the best...i mean the best! The inside of the guitar is very clean indeed. The guitar is all original except for: pick guard, nut, tuners and pins. Everything else is as it was when it rolled out the plant in Montana. Most importantly the adjustable bridge is original. I really do invite you to come along and try this stunning Gibson guitar - you will not be disappointed at all!! The original Gibson case is also part of this fantastic auction. Remember, this is not the dreaded double X bracing - it is the earlier single X pattern, which is only about a million times better, in my opinion of course, and I thin the opinion of many others out there.
