Whenever I would hear Lightfoot live on his B45-12 I would think it a must. This new J45 model is kind of a chance to get closer! Truth is, who the heck stays in bed with their 12 string anymore!

Thanks for that Dan! They aren't supposed to and sure do not sound the same. Good insights from j45nick.

Very tempting, huh! Like yourself Mr. Paul, I hope someone here has played one.

FWIW: I ceased the quest pretty much years ago , and settled on John Pearse strings. No affiliation. They just cover all the bases.

Less and less over the years.

Much appreciated Juan!

Are those pins the small heads? My 45 came with that type and boy did they look the best! Now you have me thinking about going back to them!

I paid $1500 for my blond J-150 and it is at the top of my Gibsons in sound, playability and appearance! Have always loved the unbound neck.

Has anyone upgraded those particular parts with a higher quality Bone and achieved noticeable results?
I have a Vintage I went with S. Mac bone saddle and pins. Saddle replacement for custom action as factory saddle was bone and nice sound. Pins are bone replacing what may have been tusq. I ended up with the factory bone saddle and Stew Mac bone pins for the sound I like on my Vintage. If that is of any help! Good luck and enjoy.

Reinforce the well done on a good song!

Oh man.
They do a nice demo... here is the one they did years ago for the Sheryl Crow Country Western.
That is the model I own. And, over the years it has become the guitar I play the most.

Well done. Don't modify.

I am one who buffed (hand only) my SJ with that finish, but only to obtain a gloss. While it reduced the orange peel to some real extent, it did not remove it entirely. It' now a much milder orange peel with a gloss! At some angles and lightings, or next to another guitar, I still can pick up on it. Again, I didn't do any heavy buffing. I just removed the haze and made it shine.

It was just a question. When I called GC in Albq. ,they said to have 3 and 2 with top cracks. It made me wonder why a pro shop ,properly humidified would keep those on hand. Thier situation may make it harder to return to Gibson and hoping to sell as is. An unusual situation. I agree why buy a problem unless you need a beater for your garage studio while watching paint dry.
No harm done.

I dunno, if I liked it I just might. But, I own a D41 with a humidity crack that breaks my heart every time I pick it up to play. 99 and 44/100s % of persons would have repaired or had it repaired by now. I never have done so for one reason or another. Very ugly as a result of my irresponsibility to the instrument. Sounds beautiful still! But, hard to look at for more than a second or two! That's what my girlfriends all said about me.

Well done!
