ponty 16 Report post Posted July 29, 2011 This is a good thread. You would think that seeing photos of several J-45s would be bore! Not so - Everyone slightly different and each one a beauty,plus all the other great guitars posted. Just when you think you are cured of GAS, this thread comes along!

ezsurfer 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2011 If you are like me, you likely dimly remember this from the 80's, but it was built by Gibson, in 1986-1987 in Nashville. So, my NV-6 For a Laminate back and sides, it sounds very good. Top spruce is super quality compared to a lot of what you see today. The picture is not too kind, but the headstock is in mother of pearl and looks very good. Very unique Gibson emblem... ezsurfer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The bodies and necks of the Nouveuas were made in Japan, and then shipped to and assembled in Nashville. Later, they were badged Nouveau by Epiphone. There was a Nouveau electric guitar line, too. Very nice. Red 333 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charlie brown 775 Report post Posted July 31, 2011 I don't really play acoustic much, for some odd reason. So, I have only my '54 Gibson J-160E, and a new "Insprired By Texan" Epi. Epiphone "Inspired By Texan." That's it, for now... CB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frenchie1281734003 13 Report post Posted July 31, 2011 There really are some fantastic looking guitars in this thread, my two aren`t such good lookers, but I wouldn`t change them for the world 62 Epiphone Texan next to my John Lennon re-issue 65 Casino. And my 94 Gibson J-100 Xtra (Mahogany B&S). Steve. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tpbiii 132 Report post Posted November 10, 2011 Our pictures are a bit out of date. Here are some individual portraits. Small 1930s Large 1930s 1940s Various 30s, 40s, and 50s Js Early 60 Birds This is missing the pre 1930s stuff, as well as the banjos and mandolins. Maybe later.
