Here we have a brand new guitar that caught our eyes, then our ears – a Gibson 60s J45 Original built during March of this year in an Ebony finish. This exceptional guitar comes from the Gibson Acoustic shop in Bozeman, Montana and we’ve seen a number of other truly outstanding pieces come from them in the last while.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson Early J45 Slope Shoulder Sunburst, 1997

On March 13, 2021 /

Built during 1997 and 1998, the Gibson Early J45 was designed by Ren Ferguson as a re-issue of the 1952 to 1954 J-45. The same treatment was seen in the ‘Early Hummingbird’. These models were forerunners to later ‘vintage recreations’ including the Historic, Authentic, Legend, True Vintage and New Vintage lines.

SOLD!!! Eastman E10SS/V Slope Shoulder Dreadnought Antique Varnish

On March 30, 2020 /

Showing strong influences from the classic American Slope Shouldered dreadnought line, the Eastman E10SS/V uses all solid woods and a very nice Antique Varnish finish. The earliest dreadnought guitars were built by Martin for the Oliver Ditson company during 1916, and used the round or slope shoulder format seen here; When Martin finally put the dreadnought into production in 1931, the upper bouts or shoulders were squared.

❌SOLD❌Gibson J45 Slope Shoulder Dreadnought Sunburst, 1963

On February 21, 2020 /

he Gibson J45 Slope Shouldered dreadnought, or Jumbo, was introduced in 1942 to replace the J-35, which had been built since 1936. It has remained in production ever since, and its rich warm tones make it a great match with a singer. Intended as a ‘working man’s guitar’, the Gibson J43 Slope Shouldered model was very similar to the J-35, but for the most part has stiffer, stronger and taller bracing shifted slightly back from the soundhole and a rounded neck profile.

❌ SOLD❌ Gibson 1942 Banner J-45, Vintage Sunburst Limited Edition

On February 12, 2020 /

The Gibson 1942 Banner J-45 reproduces in as many ways as possible the initial 1942 models. I have to say that Gibson’s done a fantastic job in designing and building this guitar. It’s very light, as the originals were, and uses thermally aged Adirondack Spruce for the top, and Mahogany for the rest of the guitar, except for the Indian Rosewood bridge and Fingerboard. This model does have a truss rod; from time to time during the war, Gibson would run out of the steel rod, and some of their guitars from the era didn’t get them.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson J-45 Slope Shoulder Dreadnought, 1949

On February 10, 2020 /

The Gibson J-45 Slope Shoulder Dreadnought is one of the classic American guitars, built for the working or aspiring musician. It’s not fancy, but delivers exactly what it needs to. Warm and full sounding, this model has long been a favourite for singer-songwriters. The round upper bouts or shoulders differentiate the design from Martin’s square-shoulder ‘D’line, though the first incarnations of that model also had round shoulders.
