  1. hey,

     

    There's another topic on the forum, where the OP is asking for a J-45, he wanted one from the early 60's that was RW, so it got my attention, as I thought this wasn't possible (as the J-45, has always been hog?).

     

    Anyway Vincent pulled out 4 years 1942, 1945, 1946, 1947.

     

    I said at the start that i know nothing of Gibson's history, and that being the case, will believe what they guys on this forum say.

     

    Have I miss read the post, or are there RW J-45's?

     

    I believe Vincent was making reference to those years have chunky necks

  2. I think the same thing applies to the Roy Smecks reissues as well. 12-fretters are a special kind of guitar that may not be to everyone's liking. They are great sounding guitars. I build a 12-fret Smeck-inspired Jumbo that is an amazing sounding guitar. I also make a Rosewood version with a natural top and fancy fingerboard inlays that is a replica of the Roy Smeck Radio Grande model from the 1930s.
