The J-45™ is the best-selling acoustic in the history of Gibson. Nicknamed “The Workhorse” and first introduced in 1942, this iconic acoustic guitar has become the cornerstone of its round shoulder dreadnought line. The Epiphone Inspired by Gibson J-45 Standard has been refined to carry this legacy to new heights. Made using all solid woods, including solid mahogany for the back and sides paired with a solid spruce top. The one-piece mahogany neck has a comfortable Rounded C profile and is equipped with a rosewood fretboard. It is fitted with a bone nut and saddle and smooth-functioning Grover® Rotomatic® tuners. The Epiphone J-45 Standard is equipped with a Fishman® Presys VT under-saddle pickup and preamp with volume and tone controls discretely hidden in the soundhole.
