Vintage Acoustic Guitar

 You are bidding on a Good condition 2007 Gibson J-45.  I have gigged a lot with this guitar but due to recent financial difficulties i need to part with it.  This guitar sounds great!!! Much better than most J-45's I've ever played.  That is most likely because this guitar has been played so heavily that it is broken in very well (something you won't find with most guitars on ebay).  As a guitar is played the grain of the wood is loosened, increasing the volume and tone of the instrument.  This is why this guitar is a great buy, as it is already broken in for you.  The electronics are working great and other than some decent wear and scratches this guitar is in perfect working order and is in need of a good home.  This guitar has been professionally set up and i ensure you will be happy with it.
One last side note.  The guitar comes with case.  But not the Gibson case.  Happy bidding!!!

Superb craftsmanship, legendary tone.

Nicknamed "The Workhorse" and first introduced in 1942,
Gibson's most popular round-shoulder dreadnought is world-renowned for
its full, balanced expression, warm bass, and excellent projection.
Subtle changes to the bracing of its predecessor—the J-35—made Gibson's
J-45 Standard one of most technically advanced acoustic electric guitars
of its time.

Nickel Grover Rotomatic Tuners

Grover's
original Rotomatic tuners are an engineering marvel, with abundant
style and performance exactly suited for the J-45. With a gear ratio of
14:1, the Rotomatics deliver precision tuning in a durable housing that
provides maximum protection for the gear and string post. All moving
parts are cut for exact meshing, eliminating the possibility of
slippage. A countersunk tension screw lets you regulate the tuning
tension to any degree. A special lubricant inside the gearbox provides
smooth and accurate tuning stability.

Body Tonewoods (back, sides and top)

The
top of the Gibson J-45 is made from AA-grade Sitka spruce, while the
back and sides are constructed from pattern-grade Honduran mahogany,
giving the J-45 guitar its world renowned full, balanced expression,
warm bass, and excellent projection. Selecting the right wood, and the
formula to dry it out are two of the most povital processes in Gibson's
guitar-building process. Beginning with its first catalog in 1903,
Gibson has assured its customers that every guitar would be built using
woods with "the most durable, elastic, and sonorous qualities," and
today's guitars from Gibson Acoustic maintain that standard.

Pickguard

The
pickguard for the J-45 acoustic electric guitar is Gibson's standard
plain tortoise tear drop shape, which has been used on the J-45 since
its introduction in 1942. As with all of Gibson's pickguards, the
coloring, inlay, and binding are all done by hand.

Rosette

The
rosette on the Gibson J-45 is a simple single-ring rosette consisting
of three-ply binding, adding a stylish, understated elegance to the
Gibson J-45 Standard.

Rosewood Fingerboard with Rolled Edges and Dot Inlays

The
fingerboard of Gibson's J-45 is constructed from the highest grade
rosewood on earth, which is personally inspected and qualified by
Gibson's team of skilled experts before it enters the Gibson factories.
The resilience of this durable wood makes the fingerboard extremely
balanced and stable, and gives each chord and note unparalleled clarity
and bite. The J-45's dot inlays are made of genuine mother of pearl,
measuring approximately 1/4-inch in diameter, and are inserted into the
fingerboard using a process that eliminates gaps and doesn't require the
use of fillers. The fingerboard also sports a rolled edge instead of
the usual right angle where the fingerboard surface meets the neck.
Gibson Acoustic's rolled edges are slightly beveled for an extremely
smooth and comfortable feel, enhancing the playability of the J-45.

L.R. Baggs Element Active Acoustic Pickup System

Gibson
Acoustic's J-45 comes equipped with the popular Element Active Acoustic
Pickup System from L.R. Baggs, which features a low-profile undersaddle
element—or transducer—that's proven more stable and durable than many
standard ribbon-type pickups. Combined with an onboard preamp with an
unobtrusive and removable volume control mounted just inside the
soundhole, the Element delivers performance not previously attainable
from an undersaddle pickup. Its sleek and effective design removes
unnecessary internal components to enhance the coupling between the
pickup and the guitar, and improve the sensitivity of the transducer for
a robust, lively, and natural acoustic sound with excellent dynamics
and delicate high end. The Element works with a standard 9V battery,
which is housed inside the guitar in L.R. Bagg's new "Battery Bagg."

Bracing

Every
acoustic guitar made by Gibson features hand-scalloped, radiused top
bracing inside the body, a feature normally found only in limited run,
hand-made guitars. By scalloping each brace by hand, the natural sound
of the acoustic is focused more toward the center of the body, enhancing
the instrument's sound projection. The Gibson J-45 Standard guitar
features a variation of Gibson's "X" bracing pattern situated behind the
soundhole, with a set of tall and thin braces for the back, and
scalloped tall and thin braces for the top. This legendary bracing
design delivers a balanced expression, with punchy, deep lows, warm
mids, and clear, crisp highs. When pushed for more volume, the Gibson
J-45 projects a natural compression, which helps it blend nicely with
any accompaniment.

Remember folks, This guitar was gigged with and is Good (not mint) condition as it does have scratches and dings.
