  1. Btw your comment made me realize that few years ago the cheapest was the “legendary” J45
  2. IMO these are stunning https://www.nativesonsgoods.com/guitar-straps
  3. I think this video proves 2 things : - You don't need a 10K $ guitar to make great music, you need talent. - J15 sounds great and has been chosen by someone that could afford any other guitar.
  4. I won't say anything about the "budget" point, which is became annoying. J15 is "mass-produced" as much as any Gibson standard guitar. And definitely it doesn't seem overproduced like a J45, which is usually the first guitar that mommies provide.
  5. I'm inclined to go with the bird. Anyway I realized that the Songwriter is a rosewood Hummingbird Artist. I'll wait till I can try it then I'll make my choice.
  6. I would agree with you if my question was "which is better". I asked which dread would blend well with a walnut jumbo, based on your experiences. I've went many times to my local music store, played bird and dove, not the songwriter tho.
  7. I played a Dove and it’s great. But I found maple to be very similar to walnut: quick decay, very dynamic, mid forward, granulate top end... Maybe a mahogany would make a better carpet for my walnut to sit on.
  8. Yes they all have different wood, I’m wondering which would be the most interesting match with walnut. I’ll get a new one, natural finish. I don’t need to be warned about the price, I got a J15 because I definitely prefer its sound over that of J45, not for a matter of price.
  9. Hello everyone! 🤗 I’m considering a new Gibson Acoustic that can be a good complement to my J15. I use to record a lot of acoustic music so I would like to find a good dreadnought that fits well with my jumbo when I put them in the same arrangement. Hummingbird, Songwriter, Dove? Thank you!

EDIT: WRONG SUB, sorry.
  11. Just realized that a multi award winning, platinum selling singer-songwriter, can't afford a J-45. [sarcasm] Here is Passenger with his J-15, the guitar he chose for that song, even if he owns J-45, Hummingbird and others.
  12. https://www.thomann.de/it/gibson_j_45_standard_vs_2019.htm https://www.thomann.de/it/gibson_50s_j_45_vintage_sunburst.htm Here in Europe there's an evident price difference, that's why I was wondering about the sound of the J45 Original.
  13. The funny thing is that the J-45 Original is definitely more expensive than the Standard. At least in European shops it is.
  14. Hello everyone, I'm new here 😄 I can't find any info about the tone of the 50s J-45. I'm wondering if it is just a J-45 Standard with a 50s aesthetic, or if it has also a different tone. Thanks!
