About This Listing

Guitar is basically brand new as I've played it only for a few hours.  All original case candy included and Elixir Phosphor Bronze strings just installed making the guitar every bit as bold, bright, with beautifully crisp articulation from this vintage J-45 body now finally offered with solid Rosewood sides and back.

There are three minor indentations behind the bridge.  Every attempt has been made to show these, but they won't show up in any light condition or angle with my camera they are small.  I just took the guitar to a local shop for potentially trading in and they didn't see the indentations after a thorough inspection!  One scuff mark on the side near the input jack visible in a pic guitar came this way.  Local shop stated the guitar is still 'Mint'. 

Guitar is listed elsewhere online as well as locally so listing will end promptly once guitar sells.

Great playability, action is low and strings clear the frets without buzz.  I'm selling because while the pickup system is truly outstanding at producing the natural acoustic sound, it's not the right system for playing with a band along side electric guitars and drums.  This LR Baggs Element is perfect if you play solo or in an acoustic ensemble.  Live and learn my loss can be your gain have at it!

 

Power, warmth and presence at a very attractive price.

The 2014 J-29 Rosewood Acoustic-Electric features a Sitka spruce top, and a rosewood back and sides paired with Gibson's 30's-style advanced bracing pattern, round-shoulder body style and short scale neck. Its compound dovetail neck is secured at the 14th fret with hide glue. Other accoutrements include multi-ply top binding and single rosette, an AJ-style tortoise pickguard, mother-of-pearl dot inlays, nickel Grover Rotomatic tuners and L.R. Baggs Element electronics for your plugged-in performances. All this makes the J-29 Rosewood an exceptional player and a welcome newcomer to the iconic round-shoulder line. Includes hardshell case.
