Gibson J-45 Rosewood, 2001

Gibson / 2001 J-45 Rosewood

Are you drawn to Gibson’s rugged looks and playability, but find that the earthy, dry sound of the classic mahogany body lacks the richness of harmonics and depth in the low end?

You want a sound that’s more lustrous and expansive, while retaining the J-45’s comfortable playability and crisp strumming response.
For practical players seeking the best of both worlds, it’s only natural to feel limited by the expressive capabilities of standard specifications.

This special J-45, featuring rosewood sides and back, is the perfect answer to your high standards.

—The Exquisite Range Produced by Rosewood

Setting it apart from the standard mahogany models, it delivers deep, resonant lows and crystal-clear, sparkling highs with exceptional sustain.
Combining the J-45’s signature attack with rich sustain, it boasts versatile expressiveness that handles everything from singing while playing to delicate arpeggios.

—The Elegant Appearance of a High-End Model

In addition to the beautiful, deep hue of the rosewood sides and back, it features hardware such as gold tuning pegs. Its premium feel and dignified presence—unfound in the
standard model—make it a standout on stage.

—A well-aged, Montana-made tone
This instrument was manufactured at the Bozeman factory in the early 2000s, a period highly regarded for its quality. After
approximately 25 years, the wood has dried to just the right degree, and you can enjoy a sound that’s ready to play—one that has shed the harshness typical of New instruments—from the very day you purchase it.

Production of the rosewood J-45 was limited, and the number of high-quality early 2000s examples—which have matured just enough to produce a rich tone while maintaining practical playability—appearing on the market is decreasing year by year.
With a rich, lustrous sound entirely distinct from the mahogany models, this guitar is sure to become your own unique weapon that no one else possesses.

We invite you to experience the one-of-a-kind rosewood J-45 sound for yourself. For details on the instrument’s
