An acoustic guitar is a musical instrument in the string family. When a string is plucked, its vibration is transmitted from the bridge, resonating throughout the top of the guitar. It is also transmitted to the side and back of the instrument, resonating through the air in the body, and producing sound from the sound hole. The original, general term for this stringed instrument is guitar, and the retronym 'acoustic guitar' distinguishes it from an electric guitar, which relies on electronic amplification. In standard tuning, the guitar's six strings are tuned (low to high) E2 A2 D3 G3 B3 E4. The guitar likely originated in Spain in the early 16th century, deriving from the guitarra latina. in round-shoulder design features only the finest tone woods and absolute premium features in terms of playability and design. The model comes with a solid Sitka spruce top and an equally solid mahogany body for an outstanding acoustic sound that can also be amplified on stage and in the recording studio thanks to the built-in L. R. Baggs VTC pickup. With a robust hard case and a practical accessory kit included in the scope of delivery, acoustic enthusiasts receive a highly professional guitar with full features.

Sitka spruce, mahogany and Scalloped-X bracing create excellent tonal depth and complexity.

Sitka spruce and mahogany

The Gibson J-45 Standard Vintage Sunburst Lefthand gets its characteristic sound quality from selected tonewoods and innovative top bracing. For example, the guitar comes with a solid top made of Sitka spruce, which is one of the preferred woods for guitar tops due to its broad dynamics and clear, articulate tones. Mahogany also enjoys a high popularity in guitar making. Solid mahogany back and sides add a warm, full sound with an accentuated midrange presence. For the necessary assertiveness and a balanced sound, the guitar also features bracing in the form of hand-scalloped X-bracing, which gives the top more freedom of movement by means of braces placed lower in the middle. This results in increased resonance and improved bass response, which are supported by the popular round-shoulder dreadnought design and give the guitar versatility.

Like numerous premium guitars from Gibson, the Gibson J-45 Standard Vintage Sunburst Lefthand is equipped with the professional L. R. Baggs VTC pickup.
