About This Gibson Montana Acoustic Guitar

Gibson 1942 Banner J-45 Acoustic Guitar - Vintage Sunburst - The Original Workhorse

The legend of the Gibson J-45 lives on in the new Gibson Custom Historic 1942 Banner J-45.

It is inspired by the holy grail of vintage acoustic instruments. Luthiers in Montana meticulously crafted a J-45 just like the most popular and celebrated version in structure and components.

The Historic 1942 Banner J-45 includes a Thermally Aged Adirondack red spruce top hand-sprayed with a historic-style burst, hot hide glue top bracing for better tonal response, and a bone nut and saddle.
