=============================================================
Gibson Acoustic's First Japanese Artist Model
Gibson / 2013 Kazuyoshi Saito J-45
I admire Kazuyoshi Saito's acoustic sound, which seems to naturally slip in between his words."
But I can't get that tone with my J-45. I can't get that rawer, rougher, but subtle 'typical' sound."
The warm sound with a core and rough but sexy strokes that are heard in live performances and recordings. The ordinary J-45 is somehow lacking in this area.
For those of you who have always wanted to fill that gap.
This Kazuyoshi Saito J-45 is the one that Gibson has seriously given shape to Kazuyoshi Saito's view of music and his style of playing. Every detail has been designed to bring you closer to "that sound" that cannot be achieved with a simple J-45.
The neck has a very thick and rounded unique shape.
The sound is weighted with light strokes, and even when played roughly, the sound remains cohesive without breaking up. This is the key to supporting his playing style itself. The body has a light, resonant, yet somewhat dry and slightly husky tone. The sense of the core of the sound coming forward with a single chord is clearly different from that of a regular J-45.
The pickups are equipped with Fishman Ellipse Matrix Blend.
The pickups are equipped with the Fishman Ellipse Matrix Blend, which can produce realistic room-rumbling nuances even on stage. The circuit is not just to make it sound like a J-45, but to make it sound like a J-45.
This specification is imbued with the idea of just singing with good sound, without decoration, both on stage and at home. For those who are attracted to that, this one goes beyond mere specs.
I want to get my words across on the chord.
This is the kind of guitar that should be by your side.
