[Strings - Nut - Saddle - Pins - They are essential to TONE!]

Just had my new tech install a Deer Horn nut on my J45. Very noticeable difference in sound and sustain from the bone nut that was in it before. Brighter with a sharper attack and great projection. Highly recommend giving it a try.

I agree with Larry and Node....coated strings are the best!! My body chemistry is such that it eats non-coated strings,lol....so I pretty much HAVE to use them!!! Node, I've heard tha you would play better with a new bone,nuts,and I'm pretty sure you've used a saddle before.....

[INTRODUCE YOURSELF]

Evening all! New to the forums and looking for some help and info on my Gibson acoustic. I recently purchased a Gibson Custom Shop J45 Heritage Cherry Burst LTD 60's re-issue. It was purchased new from my local Long and McQuade store. It has the orange Custom Shop Label from Bozeman Montana inside the sound hole. Unlike the only other 60's J45 re-issues I've found this one does not have the ceramic adjustable bridge. I have been attempting to research the model but am finding next to nothing about this particular J45 re-issue. Does anyone out there know anything about this particular run of Gibsons.

 

Cheers and thanks,

 

Chris
