Rock Bottom Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I have just purchased a Ltd. Edition J45 Custom Quilted Mahogany (2007 NOS) from my dealer. It has the Adirondack Red Spruce Top and is pre-loaded with the LR Baggs Element. Who out there has owned one of these...and what are/were your impressions? I have yet to play it, but the price was impossible to turn down. If I don't like it, I can return it. Please chime in if you are one of the chosen few who had this baby.....

Pickax Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Didn't you recently buy a J-45 TV? I would imagine this custom 45 is a beauty. Quilted Mahogany with an Adi top are top end tonewoods. Post some pictures when these Guitars arrive! A compare and contrast report would be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Bottom Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 I ended up cancelling the J45TV as it came with the hazy VOS finish and the Adi top looked like crap with the lines it had in it. I got a great deal on this baby from my dealer who suggested it as an alternative to the J45 TV (which HE was not happy with either)Here it is, NOS, untouched: 2007 Limited Edition J45 Custom Quilted Mahogany - 1 of 24 made The reason I got a great deal is that the quilt on the back is screwy...but who cares!! No one's gonna see it. Landed this for $1825. Not too shabby...whatdya think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigKahune Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I haven't owned one, so no help. But you got a really nice price there. The top is beautiful, and the side is nicely figured. Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul E Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Very nice. Hope it sounds as good as it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickax Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 I would have jumped on it for that price! How does it sound? I think I need to get in touch with your dealer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Bottom Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 I'll let you know on Friday when it arrives. I've only heard it over the phone, and even that sounded sweet! I am salivating waiting for the UPS truck.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
