Gibson J-45 Special Satin Wine Red

The J-45 Special in Wine Red: a guitar with character that stands out from afar

While most J-45s are clad in a neutral Sunburst, the J-45 Special Satin Wine Red opts for a look that says something about the player who picks it up. The deep, matte wine red satin finish is not only beautiful to look at, but also allows the wood to resonate more freely than a glossy finish. The result is a guitar that looks different from the rest, and that difference is also audible.

A Sitka Spruce top on mahogany back and sides delivers the familiar J-45 sound: warm and full in the mids, with a direct attack response that songwriters and accompanying players have appreciated for decades. The Slim Taper neck makes prolonged playing comfortable, while the LR Baggs Element pickup sends the acoustic tone to the PA or amplifier without coloration. Whether you're playing intimate sets or larger stages, the J-45 Special always delivers.

The utile neck features a rosewood fretboard with Mother of Pearl dot inlays, over a 24.75-inch scale length with 20 frets and a nut width of 43.8 mm. The Traditional Belly Up bridge in rosewood and Grover Rotomatic tuners complete an instrument that is impeccable in every detail. Delivered with a premium softshell case. Available as an outlet model – seize your chance to get a guitar that stands out without shouting.
