Gibson is proud to announce the third artist model made in collaboration with multi-talented guitarist, singer, songwriter, and five-time Grammy® award winner Keb’ Mo’ – the Keb’ Mo’ “3.0” 12-Fret J-45™. This new core model is ideal for a wide variety of musical compositions and playing styles and features a thermally aged Sitka spruce top, mahogany back and sides, and a 25” scale mahogany neck with a rosewood fretboard, custom Keb’ Mo’ profile, and open-back Grover® tuners. The neck joins the body at the 12th fret, giving this guitar the rounder, more full-bodied tone and exceptional playing comfort that only a 12-fret neck can provide. Equipped with L.R. Baggs electronics, it's studio and stage-ready, the moment you take it out of the included hardshell case.
