Natural acoustic projection
A rich-sounding combination of warmth and sublime glassiness spring forth from the J-45 Studio Rosewood by virtue of its rosewood back and sides — and they lend a fantastic look as well. What's more, the J-45 Studio Rosewood is topped with Sitka spruce, adding rich and mellow accents to your sound. This acoustic-electric guitar offers a surprising amount of projection, which is further enhanced by traditional scalloped X-bracing.
Exceptionally smooth playability
The Gibson Acoustic J-45 Studio Rosewood has an advanced response neck profile that feels at home in your hand whether you're playing chords or single-note leads. As you play your way up the neck, you'll appreciate the smooth feel of the 16"-radius rosewood fingerboard. With a neck that plays this smooth, you'll be able to play longer with less fatigue.
LR Baggs Element Bronze acoustic pickup system
To provide you with a natural sound that faithfully captures the true character of your guitar, Gibson selected LR Baggs’ Element Bronze electronics. The Element Bronze features a low-profile under-saddle transducer with a unique flexible sensing element, which — at only the thickness of a hair — is highly responsive to string vibrations. Unlike other under-saddle pickups, the Element Bronze does not respond to pressure, thereby eliminating the notorious piezo “quack!” Instead, you’re treated to a warm, open, and dynamic amplified acoustic tone with a delicate high end, crisp mids, and focused lows. Now, when you step onstage, you’ll never feel like you’re sacrificing your tone for the convenience of plugging in!
