Usa made J45 style for under a grand!
Walnut back and sides, non-scalloped braces and I’m sure some other cost cutting measures but I think they might sell a few of these.
Cheers,
Geoff

Cheers, Geoff This one looks interesting, but gosh I wish he would just play some regularly voiced open chords and then some up the neck without all the wanking... |

Yeah, a bit of strumming might have been nice. Cheers, Geoff |

Question. Aren’t Gibson’s supposed to be Plekked coming out of the factory? I thought they were.
Cheers,

Cheers, Geoff I was under the impression that all guitars that left the Gibson factory had their final fretwork finishing done by a plek machine. Maybe I read that wrong like 5 years ago or something and was under the wrong impression. |

So putting the thing through the Plek again and finding it in pretty good spec isn’t shocking. Cheers, Geoff |

However I've seen a few (Henry era) instruments (most but not all lower tier) that didn't seem like the Plek'ing had been done very well, if at all. |

The only “right” J-45’s I’ve played have been vintage examples. I’m not sure what’s up with their acoustics these days, but man they just all seem awful. I’m sure there are a few good examples - but every time I pick one up Im left scratching my head trying to figure out if that’s how they want them to sound. Almost like the tops are twice as thick as they should be and they are massively over braced and have huge bridge plates. Or something. |
