It has earned its name as “The Workhorse” due to its wide acceptance, no-nonsense simplicity, and understated elegance. It’s one of the most recorded acoustic guitars in history and Gibson’s best-selling acoustic model of all time. Handcrafted with care in Bozeman, Montana, by Gibson’s expert acoustic luthiers, the new Gibson J-45 Special offers players a USA-built Gibson acoustic guitar at a very attractive price. The J-45 Special has a round shoulder body constructed using genuine solid mahogany for the back and sides and a solid Sitka spruce top. The top is reinforced with our traditional scalloped X-bracing. This combination of tonewoods delivers a warm, balanced tone with excellent dynamic range that is great for any musical genre.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe “concert depth” body is slightly thinner than on a J-45 Standard, giving the J-45 Special a leaner and tighter bass response that sits perfectly in the mix and also makes it easier to hold. The utile neck is attached to the body with a compound dovetail neck-to-body joint, and like all Gibson acoustic guitars, it is affixed with hot hide glue. The neck has a comfortable and fast-playing SlimTaper™ profile, and the rosewood fretboard has a 12” radius and is adorned with simple mother-of-pearl dot inlays and is fitted with 20 standard frets. The traditional belly-up rosewood bridge is equipped with a TUSQ® saddle, and the nut and bridge pins are also TUSQ. High-quality Grover® Rotomatic® tuners ensure solid tuning stability. The J-45 Special is finished in satin nitrocellulose lacquer in your choice of Satin Vintage Sunburst or Satin Wine Red. It comes with an L.R. Baggs Element Bronze under-saddle piezo pickup with active electronics and an easily accessible soundhole-mounted volume control pre-installed for studio-quality plug-and-play anywhere. The J-45 Special also comes with a premium soft shell case.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree Shipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid Mahogany Back and Sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid Sitka Spruce Top\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosewood Fretboard with Mother of Pearl Dot Inlays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSatin Nitrocellulose Lacquer Finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrover Rotomatics Tuners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTUSQ Nut, Saddle, and Bridge Pins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eL.R Baggs Element Bronze Under-Saddle Pickup and Active Preamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoundhole-Mounted Volume Control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium Soft Shell Case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42987039391792,"sku":"210000090627","price":1999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0286\/0200\/7600\/files\/MCRS45SPCHB_23305048_1_Body.jpg?v=1777487231","url":"https:\/\/parkwaymusic.com\/products\/gibson-j-45-special-satin-honey-burst-live-4-28-2026","provider":"Parkway Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
