Up for sale is a beautifully appointed Gibson Custom Shop J-45 featuring a rare Carpathian spruce top paired with stunning AA figured koa back and sides. This lightly used example delivers the classic warm, balanced J-45 voice with added articulation, shimmer, and visual elegance from the koa tonewood combination.

The Carpathian spruce top offers exceptional responsiveness and dynamic range, while the AA koa adds clarity, definition, and gorgeous figuring throughout. The result is a versatile slope-shoulder acoustic that works equally well for fingerstyle, strumming, and recording applications.

This guitar has been lightly played and remains in excellent condition with only minimal signs of use. Frets show little wear, and the instrument has been well cared for in a smoke-free environment.

Equipped with LR Baggs VTC electronics, it sounds fantastic plugged in and is ready for stage or studio use.

Features include:

  • Gibson Custom Shop build
  • Carpathian spruce top
  • AA figured koa back and sides
  • Mahogany neck
  • LR Baggs VTC pickup system
  • Includes original hardshell case

A rare and visually striking Custom Shop J-45 with premium tonewoods and outstanding tone. Feel free to message with any questions or for additional photos.
