Recommended Posts

hey guys, I was able to get my hands on this 66 J45 and i done some research and i found out that 1966 is when they first applied the gibson logo onto the pickgaurd, but other than that i cant find any for sell or that have sold to ind get a price idea, its is in killer condition the only flaw is the lacquer :crack but i understand that's normal with its age? i was just wondering if anyone could give me more info, price ideas? I would greatly appreciate it!! imma attempt to post some pictures fingers crossed it works lol

With these guitars it generally comes down to whether you can live with the skimpy neck profile and narrow nut width. I have seen them in good condition sell in the $2K range but that was a killer deal and a more normal price would be the mid to upper $2000s.

Very nice - a guitarist I know has more mojo'ed one of these and it sounds good.

 

Take a glance at the head-stock-angle - my guess is it's straighter.

 

Now I look forward to hear what you do with the adjustable rosewood saddle insert. . .

 

Perhaps nothing is needed.
