bohemian Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I bought a WM-45 the other day. Looked for the "right" 45 for several years. Excellent plus condition. Original case. No modifications. Picks. Fantastic tone and playbaility (reminiscent of my stolen '46 J-45) Very high quality materials Stark simplicity Excellent workmanship Nits: Cheezy gold tuners on a "working man's" guitar.. bling looks best on over the top instruments such as full hollow body jazz units such as a 400 or a Stromberg Black pickguard Improperly cut original nut... sides don't blend with the neck and slots too deep. I am making a pickguard Nickel tuners on order. Making a new saddle and nut. Other than that just a truss rod adjust and good to go. When you fiid a good Gibson there is nothing like it. This one was worth the wait. And surprise, found it at a GC !.. Undamaged as it had been there less than a week. And since they are generally clueless with used acoustics, got a fair deal. Only a Gibson is good enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
