The classic J-45 has been the choice of legendary musicians ever since it was first introduced in 1942. Known as The Workhorse, it is Gibsons most famous and most popular acoustic guitar model. Now, Epiphone has released a new Inspired by Gibson J-45 with all of the features players want, including all solid wood construction, a comfortable rounded C neck profile, 20 medium jumbo frets, the 60s style Kalamazoo headstock shape and a gorgeous Aged Vintage Sunburst finish. The Fishman Sonicore under-saddle pickup and Sonitone preamp make this Workhorse stage-ready too.
