Default SOLD 1949 Gibson J45

I'm reluctantly posting up a few of my nicer guitars to raise some cash. This one has been gone through from top to bottom, for better or for worse. Yes, it did sacrifice some originality, but it sacrifices none of the tone that you would expect out of a '49 Gibson, and is dead reliable.

Refinished at some point prior to my purchase. The guitar was gone through 100% - neck reset, new frets, some small cracks on the back were cleated, and the entire guitar was refinished. Finish is definitely more on the thin side, which is what I would prefer in a refin like this.

This guitar is dead solid. Just had it looked over and a full set up / fret dress / new saddle / etc. All braces are tight. Clean bill of health. Plays like a dream - extremely open, huge sound, sweet and soft when you want it but it'll shout and growl when pushed.

Comes with non-original HSC and K&K pickup installed. I also have a very nice $$ fire-stripe pickguard that could be installed as well to bring it back to more of the period correctness. I had the nice tortois installed when a firestripe was unavailable at a quality that I was happy with. Looks very nice, but I do have the other as an option to change if you desire.

Any questions, just ask. Incredibly nice guitar that I'd hate to see go.

Asking $SOLD
