The Story

1942 Banner J-45 Vintage Sunburst 2020

This is a used and still in overall very good to excellent shape 1942 Banner J-45 from Gibson, built in Montana in 2020. The guitar features a thermally aged top that gives you warm vintage, worn-in tones right off the bat (though this one has already had four years of playing under its belt), a V-profile mahogany neck, and the simple yet elegant mother of pearl dot inlays. The guitar has light playwear around the body, no major dents or dings, and a non-original case included.

Includes: Non-Original Hardshell Case
