Reminds me of the old WM-45. I’m really curious to see how these look/play/sound.
If these are all-solid — which isn’t completely outside the realm of possibility here, though perhaps a bit of a long shot — I could see these being very popular.
Edit: now that I factor in street price rather than MAP, and remembering some of the fairly recent Gibson acoustic models, these probably do have laminate back/sides. Still could prove to be a hit.

It's fun to speculate, I'd guess $799 street on the studio model. Laminate back and sides with an LR Baggs pickup system. That would give them a lot of potential to be great stage instruments. Plugged in you might not even be able to tell the difference in tone or feel from the J-45 Standard.
