Welcome back to another Vault Friday! Each Friday I’ll venture into the Vault with one of our instrument specialists to showcase some of the cool stuff we’ve got hidden away in there.
The J-45 is one of the most beloved and played acoustic guitars in the history of modern music, and the icon of Gibson’s round-shoulder dreadnought acoustic line ever since its introduction in 1942. In recognition of this distinguished rank, Gibson is proud to present the J-45 Custom – one of the most elegant and best-sounding versions of this classic model produced by the Gibson Acoustic Custom shop in Bozeman, Montana. The J-45 Custom features great tone and powerful sound with Indian Rosewood on the back and sides and a solid Sitka Spruce top. This headstock inlay designed by master luthier Ren Ferguson is one of the most beautiful we’ve seen and is coupled with an double-ring rosette with an abalone center. The J-45 Custom comes equipped with the popular Element Active Acoustic Pickup System from L.R. Baggs, which features a low-profile undersaddle element combined with an onboard preamp with an unobtrusive and removable volume control mounted just inside the soundhole.

A few weeks ago we featured the Gibson Doves in Flight Acoustic Guitar – this week we’re back with the Gibson SUPER DOVE. This guitar is one of the first 12 handcrafted in Bozeman, Montana. This guitar features a slim design, top grade maple, a built-in Aura electronics package, and is hand-signed by Master Luthier Red Ferguson.
We don’t have this guitar available on the web, so drop by or give JC a call at (800) 635-2021 Ext. 7124 for more information!
We’ve decided to start a new weekly feature here on the First Quality Music Blog: Vault Fridays. Each Friday I’ll venture into the Vault with one of our instrument specialists to showcase some of the cool stuff we’ve got hidden away in there.
Last week, we showed you a very special Gibson F-5 Mandolin signed by the late Charlie Derrington. This week, we decided to pull a Guitar out of the vault, the Gibson SJ-200 True Vintage. Gibson’s master luthiers in Bozeman, Montana set out to recreate the legendary SJ-200 that helped define the American music scene of the 1930′s, and we’re pretty impressed with the outcome. This guitar features deep, well-balanced tone and the powerful sound we’ve come to expect from the Gibson Super Jumbo line.
