The Gibson J-45 is the best-selling acoustic guitar in Gibson's history. Introduced in 1942, it quickly gained recognition for its warm, balanced tone and rich projection, qualities that earned it the nickname "The Workhorse." Over the decades, it has become one of the most recorded models of all time, establishing itself as a benchmark of the Round Shoulder Dreadnought family and among the most cherished acoustics by musicians of all genres.

Part of the Anniversary Collection, created to celebrate 100 years of Gibson Flat-Tops, the Gibson Custom J-45 Anniversary Limited Edition is one of five guitars that make up this exclusive commemorative series, each available in only 100 units. While maintaining the characteristics that made the J-45 famous, this special edition stands out for its use of highly selected materials and a series of exclusive aesthetic details, designed to celebrate one of the most iconic models in Gibson's history.

The solid Sitka Bear Claw spruce top is paired with solid mahogany back and sides, enhanced by multi-layer binding with abalone inlays and a mahogany neck with a SlimTaperâ„¢ profile.

The rosewood fingerboard features 20 standard frets and pearl dot inlays, providing smooth and natural playability, ideal for any performance style.

Thanks to the L.R. Baggs VTC electronics, the J-45 Anniversary Limited Edition is perfectly stage- and studio-ready. The system includes a piezoelectric under-saddle transducer and an active preamplifier with volume and tone controls mounted inside the soundhole, easily accessible yet visually discreet. This configuration ensures natural and dynamic sound reproduction, preserving the instrument's tonal personality even in amplified settings.

Completing the specifications are the Belly Up rosewood bridge with Pyramid details, a bone saddle, and TUSQ pins, along with gold Grover Open-Back tuning machines and a bone nut, elements that ensure tuning stability and long-term reliability.
