Gibson / J45 Sunburst / 1953 / Guitar

Introduced in 1942 as a replacement for the J35, the J45 has since become one of Gibson's most popular acoustic flattops. Earning a reputation as a "workhorse" guitar, the J45 was embraced for its no-frills attitude and big, strong tone. The warm and sweet sound of the older J45s is enchanting. This Gibson J45 from 1953 is proof of that. The mahogany body with spruce top produces a beautifully dry and mature sound that only comes with years and years of play. The fact that it has been played for years is also reflected in the traces on the guitar and the maintenance. The top shows the beautiful weatherchecking on the sunburst finish. The back of the body has a number of repaired cracks, after which the back has been refinished as well. The neck has had a neck reset and refret. As a result, it is still in good condition and has great playability for years to come.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
