Wildwoodians, we are pleased to showcase the Modern Collection J-45 Standard Koa, an acoustic thoroughbred with a workhorse's spirit. Though they borrow the looks of the J-45s of yore, the J-45 Standard sports a modern neck profile for players that desire fast feel. These guitars capture all of the J-45's most appealing characteristics--versatility, dynamic response, and elegant good looks--in a modern package.
They pair a solid Englemann spruce with solid koa back and sides, and together those two premium tonewoods produce a sweet, nuanced sound resplendent with overtones. Gibson's luthiers attach the solid-wood body to the mahogany neck with a compound dovetail neck joint to maximize resonance and sustain.
