Salfromchatham Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I wanted to post a picture of my two Gibsons. One is my 2007 J45TV, which is my favorite guitar, and the other is my J-50 Modern Classic (whatever that means - I think it is the same as a J45 but with the old style pickguard). The J-50 sounds great plugged in (Baggs Element), and I hope she opens up with a few years of play, like my TV has. By the way, the third guitar in my 2nd picture is my Martin D15 - I lover her too. I will try to do a sound comparison at some point, which should illustrate that the J-45TV is more seasoned, resonant, and fuller than the J-50. But it has the advantage of time and play...

j45nick Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Aw.... a blonde, and a brunette. What could be cuter than a good-lookin' pair of sisters? Let's see, which one should I play today....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gio Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Right, Betty & Veronica.... I think the J-50 is one if the two best looking guitars ever (the other being Martin'OM-18). I really fancy a J-50TV... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroAussie Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 They go together really well Sal, and the Martin 15 is a perfect complement to the Gibbys. Loving mine, do you feel its a good complement to your Gibsons ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salfromchatham Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 Euro , my D15 is a lifer guitar. Yes. It is warm,and very bassy. It is a great singer's guitar. My Gibby dreads are so balanced in contrast, and I don't love any more than the other (well, maybe I love my J-45TV a wee bit more). Love my guitars, man. Gio, Me too!

I really fancy a J-50TV... Someone who agrees with me about the beauty of the J50 .... a simple blond beauty .... no bling but a pleasure to behold and play. Below is a pix of my J50 TV next to a J45 natural that I no longer own. Note the banner, the wide grain, and the old style tuners. I love it.

Gio Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 So, a J-50TV does exist!! I love the square bridge! This will cause focused GAS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdd707 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 So, a J-50TV does exist!! I love the square bridge! This will cause focused GAS. Yes they do indeed. Five Stare Dealer Bailey Brothers (205- 271-7827 ask for Keith) had 3 made on special order. I bought the first and two more hang on the wall of their acoustic room. Mine is light as a feather and came out of the case with the most wonderful warm tone. Gets better the more I play it. It's my hog lifetime keeper.
