J-45 Aged Vintage Sunburst Gloss
Epiphone's Latest Rendition of the Iconic Workhorse
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 Gibson's 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® Presys VT™ under-saddle pickup and preamp make this Workhorse stage-ready too. Optional hardshell or EpiLite™ case available separately.
A battery is not included. To power your pickup, you will need a 9-volt battery.
