bill67 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Of all the other Gibsons which does the J-15 sound the most like.After a month mine is opening up and getting louder.I'm 75 and play probably less than an hour a day because the fingers can't take much more than that,Even using Rock Tips.

Cibby53 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I'm going on 3 months with mine. I've done up grades to all bone pins,nut,saddle and use medium strings and the J15 is about everything I want. It is loud when I play aggressive has a big bass and high dollar trebles . I'm not sure what other Gibson it sounds like but Ito me it's not what anyone would think an entry level Gibson sounds like. I have played a variety of Martins in my almost 60 years and the J15 just feels good to play it fits me and has a great sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slinky1 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Hey Cibby, I believe we got our J-15's about the same time. I have three Gibson acoustics, I love this one almost as much as my J-200. I am also very impressed with the quality of this guitar. It does look better than what the pictures show. I said it before on this forum, this is one very nice guitar. The feel, playability AND the tone are outstanding. This is a great addition to my small collection. To the OP, not sure which Gibson it sounds the most like, but I thought I noticed some of the J-200 in it. It sounds really well balanced. It does strumming, finger picking and flat picking really well. Sounds pretty good to me with a capo, at least to the 5th fret. I love all my Gibsons and feel like I have some nice ones.
