GibsonDan Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Hi - I'm Dan, a displaced Texan living in England and today I've just ordered a Gibson J-45. Can't wait to get it, it's my first Gibson guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E-minor7 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Look forward to see and hear more. J-45's are among the finest acoustic instruments - which again rate the model as one of the cardinal points of this planet. Have fun behind it, , , , , and in front while you enjoy its cool lines'n'burst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortyearspickn Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Perfect choice for your first Gibson ! Don't forget - as good as it sounds, it'll gradually get better for over a year. Some say it's the guitar, some say it's because the player plays more. Hope you get to experience both ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombywoof Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Welcome. I agree with J45nick that a regular old J45 is a great way to start cozying up with Gibsons. I lived in Edinburgh Scotland for a bit in the mid-1970s. I used to hang out at the back of Sandy Bell's which is where all the local and out of town folkies gathered. I was hoping to pick up some some tips on playing fiddle but would often end up having a guitar thrown in my hands to play some blues.

MissouriPicker Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 It’s tough to beat a J45, Doesn’t matter if it’s your first guitar or 100th guitar. Once you’ve had it a while, we’ll be expecting a video and song......Congrats! Good choice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhanners623 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Welcome. Hard to beat a good J-45. I used to live in Texas (Amarillo, Brownsville and then Dallas) and now live in Nicosia, Cyprus. At present, though, I'm in Manchester, UK, visiting family. We picked a great time to come to England.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
