Massive Round Shoulder Dreadnought
The large resonance body, hand-scalloped X-bracing for enhanced vibration, and solid construction produce a powerful, assertive sound, while carefully selected tonewoods shape its distinctive character. The bright clarity of the Sitka spruce top combined with the warm, midrange-rich tones of the mahogany back and sides creates an exceptional tonal balance. This versatility brings out the best in a wide range of playing styles and genres, making the Gibson J-45 Custom Ebony a true all-rounder.
The slim neck profile guarantees comfortable playability.
Mahogany neck with slim taper profile
The Gibson J-45 Custom Ebony also excels in playability. Its mahogany neck with a grippy slim taper profile and the round-shoulder body shape promote a relaxed posture for extended playing sessions. The shortened 628.7 mm scale length lowers string tension, making even complex fingering patterns easier to handle. A standout feature is the deep black ebony fingerboard, whose smooth surface not only produces precise tones but also allows the fretting hand to glide effortlessly across the entire neck.
The L. R. Baggs Session VTC captures every nuance.
L. R. Baggs Session VTC
Equipped with the innovative L.R. Baggs Session VTC, the Gibson J-45 Custom Ebony delivers exceptional sound both on stage and in the studio. This piezo pickup responds sensitively to the vibrations of the top and the pressure of the strings, capturing every nuance of your playing in detail. The natural tone can be further shaped using the preamp’s volume and tone controls, allowing players to achieve their desired sound with precision and fully enjoy their performance.
An impressive design also visually enhances any setting.
Ebony finish
The Gibson J-45 Custom Ebony also captivates visually with its elegant high-gloss ebony finish, offering a subtle yet striking appearance. The black pickguard complements the look, while white multi-ply bindings and a white single-ring rosette provide tasteful contrast, beautifully framing the instrument’s soft contours. Mother-of-pearl graduated block inlays on the fingerboard add luxurious highlights, creating a delicate shimmer that completes this masterpiece.
