Thanks for all the positive responses and support, everyone, and the advice on strings and on dialling the brightness down a notch. I'm getting to like the brightness more and more as I learn how to get the best out the guitar, but I'll certainly be looking at a bone saddle and nut and ebony bridge pins (thanks, vindibona1) sometime in the near future.
The more I play this guitar the more I love it! I initially got some negative responses from some crusty old musos I hang out with which made me question my decision to buy it. They like to think they're traditionalists, but I figure they're just plain jealous! Cheers, Gary. |

Congratulations on your new J-45 Studio! Your description is spot-on in my opinion. I just purchased one (natural finish) and it's everything you described. Enjoy!

Your J-45 Studio is a solid wood melodic guitar. It has a short scale, a comfortable neck especially for those folks that have arthritic hands, a nut width that is a bit more roomy than the 1-11/16th but less of a stretch than the 1-3/4. It has a slightly thinner lower body that is more comfortable for some folks to play. I also own one and to me it is perfect. Congratulations!
