This is a vintage 1956 Gibson J-45. The guitar is in good condition, it's 61 years old so it definitely shows some wear. The biggest flaw is a crack that you can see in the photos that is in the sound hole. It has the normal checking you would see on a vintage guitar. There is some wear on the frets in the first position. There's also an assortment of dings and scratches in the finish. I did my best to capture all of the marks in the photos.
This is a player's guitar. This has all of the tone you would want from a Gibson guitar. It has that cannon sound that you would expect from a vintage Gibson. Very resonant, very warm, all in all a terrific instrument.
Everything on the guitar is original except for the tuners which were replaced with period correct tuners.
Comes with hardshell case that is not original.
