1953 Gibson J-45

1953 Gibson J-45 in excellent condition.  A wonderfully clean guitar with no issues to speak of.  We gave it a good once over in our shop.  The tuners are modern reproductions with the original bushings and screws.  The neck was perfectly reset some time ago and we made a new bone saddle to get the action just right.  The neck is the comfortable round shape typical of Gibson in this era.  The dark sunburst finish is attractive and shows minor wear and checking.  The bridge is original and uncut.  Crack free all around.  The sound is what you want and expect from an early 50s jumbo.  Big and thick with lots of midrange and low end thump, lively and open. Includes 1960s Gibson case.
