Does my 1942 J-47 1/2 count? The FON places it squarely in the first batch of J-50s sent out of Kalamazoo but it left the factory with a burst to cover up a screw up in the top build. So by date of birth it is a J-50 but by the skin it wears it is a J-45.

Ooh. that's very close to the stairs !

 

very dark burst that one ? or just the photo ?

nice guitar

 

It was only parked there long enough to get the picture.

 

It's a dark burst finish , Adirondack spruce top , rosewood back / sides . These were a run of 65 units . What sold me was the sound and how it felt.
