Inspired by the holy grail of vintage acoustic instruments, luthiers in Bozeman, Montana meticulously crafted a J-45 just like the most popular and celebrated version in structure and components. The new 1942 Banner J-45 includes a thermally aged red spruce top that helps give it the tone of a long-cherished heirloom. It is hand-sprayed with a historic-style burst using nitrocellulose lacquer. The hand-scalloped top X bracing is also made from red spruce and the braces are fitted with hot hide glue for better tonal response. The 1942 Banner J-45 Heavy Aged is crafted using solid mahogany for the back and sides, and the top and back are both bound with single-ply binding. The nut, saddle, and bridge pins are bone. The rosewood open slot bridge features the rectangular shape found on the earliest J-45 models. The tuning machines are strap-style, open-back units with cream buttons. The tortoise shell-colored pickguard features the original teardrop shape. The 1942 Banner J-45 Heavy Aged features Heavy Aging by the skilled artisans of the Murphy Lab. The Murphy Lab Heavy Aged finish treatment, paired with heavily aged nickel hardware, simulates decades of heavy play wear, giving it the unique character, vibe, and feel of an original example from the Gibson Golden Era. Expect a heavy weather-checked finish, heavy belt buckle wear, light arm wear, and light neckwear. A period-correct Gibson Custom hardshell case is also included to keep this beautiful guitar safe when not in use, and a certificate of authenticity is also included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eString Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eSteel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Strings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eRound Shoulder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeft-\/Right-handed:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eRight-handed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eVintage Sunburst\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eMurphy Lab Aged Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop Wood:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThermally Aged Red Spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides Wood:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eMahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Bracing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eTraditional Hand-scalloped X-bracing, Red Spruce Braces with Hide Glue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eSingle-ply Top and Back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Wood:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eMahogany, Historic Neck Shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRadius:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e12\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eRosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Inlay:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eMother of Pearl Dot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Frets:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e24.75\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuning Machines:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eStrap Style, Open Back, Cream Buttons, Aged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eRosewood; Rectangle, Open Slot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut\/Saddle Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eBlack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e1.72\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElectronics:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003en\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStrings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003ePhosphor Bronze Light 12-53\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003ePeriod Correct Case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53770090250556,"sku":null,"price":7499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0147\/1256\/9910\/files\/93D8267A-6006-4AD1-BAA2-E600ECDEA63F.jpg?v=1784744290","url":"https:\/\/danvillemusic.com\/products\/gibson-custom-shop-1942-banner-j-4-murphy-lab-heavy-aged-vintage-sunburst-guitar-5003","provider":"Danville Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
