Specifications

A full-body-depth, gloss-top reimagining of the Studio series

The instruments in Gibson Acoustic’s Studio series have historically featured three distinct qualities that differentiate them from their higher-end counterparts: restrained aesthetics, unique tonewoods, and a slimmed-down body depth. That all changes with this J-45 Studio Rosewood! Now boasting a full-depth body, this model clocks in even closer to high-end J-45 specs. Moreover, Gibson graced this Studio series model with a full gloss nitrocellulose lacquer top — the same finish found on Gibson’s top-of-the-line models — to pair with the understated appeal of its satin back, sides, and neck.

Tasteful tonewood troupe

The J-45 Studio Rosewood is suited with a classic spruce and rosewood tonewood pairing. A solid Sitka spruce top guarantees exceptional clarity and articulation, making it a valuable weapon for guitarists of nearly every playing style. Lining the back and sides is a delicate selection of Indian rosewood, which keeps your midrange at bay while boosting low and high-end projection. The J-45 Studio Rosewood's round shoulder D body style and scalloped X-bracing top off your tone with even more sonority and volume. One single strum on this 6-string will prove its worth.

Up to its neck in player performance

Gibson's use of a utile neck in the J-45 Studio Rosewood acoustic-electric guitar signifies a step forward in sonic mobility. When paired with a reworked Advanced Response profile and satin nitrocellulose finish, this neck makes light work of managing transitions across all 20 frets. Likewise, a supple rosewood fingerboard with a 16-inch radius sculpts pinpoint accuracy with its dotted side markers and mother-of-pearl dot inlays. Sweetwater guitarists concur: No matter your chosen playing style, the J-45 Studio Rosewood acoustic-electric will ensure you cut through the mix.

LR Baggs electronics

The LR Baggs Element Bronze system in the J-45 Studio Rosewood acoustic-electric guitar makes plugging in with confidence easy. This renowned system has won over legions of players for its incredibly authentic acoustic tone. The Element under-saddle transducer has a minimalist design and broad surface contact area that help you get the most out of your instrument. It is engineered to sense every movement of your guitar's top, delivering natural tone that is free of the typical piezo "quack" that can plague many under-saddle designs. It is also a fantastic way for modern fingerstyle players to get the most from their percussive techniques!
