Jim Wilson Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I've never been a big fan of sunburst guitars...until I got one that plays like a dream. Now, sunbursts look a whole lot better to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blindboygrunt Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Gotta hear a song , I agree with sal Preferably without using the pickup , ya know for scientific purposes Had my j45 for quite a while now and no guitar has ever came close to its inspirational qualities .

I agree, acoustic guitars are meant to be heard via the sound projecting from the sound hole I also agree with the rest of the commenters on the burst, I wasn't a fan of the burst until I got a Gibson J-45, it grows on you...and the Gibson sound don't hurt their likability either.

kwalker201 Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 After playing it last night for several hours I sure can hear the tonal differences between the 45 and the 15. The 45 projects so much more, I was surprised that it was that much. Now this is in no way a slam to my J15, which I still think is a great guitar. The action is a lot higher than I like and so I am going to take it in and get it setup to my liking. Its hard to believe that I picked this up for what I paid for my J15. I ran the serial and found It was made Feb. 27, 2015 and was #67. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58 Relic Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Well done , same as mine and mine was made March 2015 ! I wouldn't part with her for the world . Every time I pick a G chord and feel the resonance in the bass and the sweet trebles I know it's the guitar for me . Only problem I had was finding a suitable capo but the Paige Click works fine .

What problems with finding a suitable capo ? Just wondering , only one that's not so great on mine is the Newport capo , but no others have gave me trouble .

kelly campbell Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 nice guitar, I personally like the bursts....have fun I enjoy mine a lot ...I find it hard to pull out the other guitars anymore since I added the J15 to the family I seem to go back and forth between the 45 and 15.

SmokeyGhost Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Nice. I really do like my J-45. Despite the heat we are having here it doesn't, unlike some other guitars I own, stray far in regards to staying in tune. Maybe it's only a fluke on this particular guitar but, if not, Gibson got something right in that aspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lost a Paige capo which is a shame because I really liked it Sorry for interrupting your party kwalker Just that I find my guitar J45 doesn't get on with the non adjustable types , they tend to pull the 6th string sharp . Also I find that the Paige mirrors the fretboard radius really well ( I tend to play with the capo on the 6th and 7th fret sometimes ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
