Gibson Modern Collection J-45 Studio Rosewood

A Workhorse of Epic Proportions

Wildwoodians, the Modern Collection J-45 Studio Rosewood is a workhorse of epic proportions. At a very player-friendly price point, it offers a spectacular spin on classic J-45 tone with all the conveniences that modern players crave. Like all Gibsons, it has light bracing that allows for maximum responsiveness as well as superior volume and projection. The rosewood back and sides lend it unbelievably deep, rich bass response as well as lush, sparkling trebles and transparent midrange, and the short scale length gives the attack an articulate, percussive quality. All together, that means that the J-45 Studio Rosewood is as excellent for delicate fingerpicked passages as it is for enthusiastic campfire strumming.

This model also sports a satin finish, which gives it a beautifully earthy, rustic appearance and a slightly different flavor of J-45 tone. The satin finish boosts volume slightly, and gives it a pleasingly raw, boomy tone that makes every note feel like it's coming out of the guitar's soul.

Beyond that, the J-45 Studio Rosewood also sports an uber-comfy Advanced Response neck profile that makes it nigh-impossible to put down, Grover Rotomatic tuners for optimum tuning stability, and a sweet-sounding LR Baggs Element that maximizes dynamic touch-sensitivity and fidelity while minimizing the dreaded quack without influencing the unplugged tone of the guitar.

It all adds up to an acoustic guitar that you can depend on to rule the stage, the studio, the jam, or just your living room. Truly, a workhorse of epic proportions!
