Wow is all I can say. This will be replacing my j-45 PureVoice. I loved the PV but have found that I'm into thicker necks now and the TV just feels right!

Very nice looking adi top.

 

Great guitar. I wish Gibson would move that pickguard over a smidge.

 

So how does she handle and sound?

 

Congrats and enjoy. . B)

ok this guitar is phenomenal! great tone and the neck just keeps me wanting to play and play...really, It feels like it might be a bit shorter in scale and has a great thickness. I love the burst as it has a more wood tone in the middle. also it's light as a feather.

I know about the pick guard...guess I resigned myself to the F&ck$d up Gibson way of placement of them. Sound is what matters eh, I even thought of holding off for a 2014 as it appears they keep the pick guard as a side dish, but I had a bird in the hand...May have it pulled and re-mount down the road if it bugs me too much.

Oh by the way,

does that peppery mahogany smell account for anything?...

 

Yes, it does. And it's one reason I keep my guitars in their cases, just to catch that aroma when I open the case.

Me too [thumbup]

 

The neck on my 2010 TV is even beefier than the 2012's I've played.

Yea, that 5 second odeur changing from case to case, brand to brand is really something.

Like aftershave or strange gin Martins are much more masculine, but I have learnt to appreciate the vanilla-winds from the Bozeman-bakery.

Still sniffin' box-breeze can't beat the eyesight of these beauties - that's why they hang around here and there in furniture and stands.

Some remain in cases though, , , for more reasons than 2. .

 

Regarding p-guards and the soundhole-ring-thing, it never was an issue here.

Guess the many years with the D-35 made me immune (most Marts have one third covered)

Not to mention the Gibson squares. .

 

Enjoy your 45, , , well, you obviously already do
