The table is of spruce, the sides and bottom are Indian Rosewood, the key and the bridge are ebony. The lifts are gold Grover. The preamp is a fishman (natural matrix 2?)

UTILIZATION

Shoulders is a round, a little smaller than a dreadnought, very comfortable. The handle certain not very wide recalls Gibson electric. It is easy in all styles of play short scale provides some comfort.

SOUNDS

While there, we play in the big leagues, the sound is balanced and powerful. It is not as bright as Taylor, the bass are not as powerful as some, but what Martin's. And sustain large grained (the ebony fingerboard has a lot to). Rosewood brings a maturity to the sound of a guitar very young. In the game sound is excellent in every style picking, flat picking, chords, it's done with warmth and power. We just get serious, it responds immediately and what heat! In electronics, the preamp can forget but nothing replaces a microphone jack.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for 6 years. At budjet, it is not really what happiness but given the price difference with the standard model is well justified. Find a store that has both models and compare. A useful link: www.harmony-central.com/Guitar/Data4/Gibson/J_45_Rosewood-1.html
