Does my 1942 J-47 1/2 count? The FON places it squarely in the first batch of J-50s sent out of Kalamazoo but it left the factory with a burst to cover up a screw up in the top build. So by date of birth it is a J-50 but by the skin it wears it is a J-45.

In reality a 1953 J-45 that was modified what seems to be many many years ago.

 

A keeper - highly rated here in the temple.

Yeah, I love the way those brown Lifton cases look but it is not original to the guitar but the type used from around 1947 to 1960. Just had it laying around so threw it into service.

Ooh. that's very close to the stairs !

 

very dark burst that one ? or just the photo ?

nice guitar

 

It was only parked there long enough to get the picture.

 

It's a dark burst finish , Adirondack spruce top , rosewood back / sides . These were a run of 65 units . What sold me was the sound and how it felt.
