This change shortens the overall neck length and moves the bridge plate deeper into the body, positioning it closer to the widest part of the top.

As part of the new Century Collection, celebrating a century of Gibson flat-top craftsmanship, it pairs a mahogany body with a Sitka spruce top, accented by single-ply cream binding tracing the top and back.

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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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. The “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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe J-45 Special is finished in satin nitrocellulose lacquer in your choice of Satin Ebony, Satin Natural or Satin Honey Burst. 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.

Red, as a colour, relates to love, passion, and even anger, matters that we typically would associate with the heart, but if you look closely, the ends of the feathers are dipped in white, and the bird itself has a spiritual nature to them. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen I’m on long road trips, I look out the window and count them alongside the highway.
