An ultra-limited take on a legend
The venerable J-45 has been going strong since its introduction in 1942, but you've never seen a "Workhorse" quite like this one! Gibson Acoustic went to great pains to make the Limited Edition Master Archetype Custom J-45 African Zebra both beautiful and functional, with Gibson Custom Shop checkerboard top trim, an aged-style finish, custom handmade tuners, and a handwritten label signed by Gibson Acoustic luthier Ren Ferguson. Also included: a special Summer Jam '08 Certificate of Authenticity.

Incredible tonewoods
Of course, this limited-edition guitar would just be a beautiful decoration hanging on the wall if it didn't sound fantastic; thanks to its time-tested design, solid Gibson Acoustic craftsmanship, and incredible selection of tonewoods, it most definitely does! This advanced-jumbo-style guitar features a Sitka spruce top with 1930s-style bracing, and a Madagascar rosewood fingerboard and bridge. Using African zebrawood for the guitar's back and sides gives the Limited Edition Master Archetype Custom J-45 African Zebra a tone somewhat similar to rosewood, with a very distinctive, "stripey" look.

Classic Gibson craftsmanship
Gibson's reputation as a fine guitar builder dates back to the late 1800s. Handcrafted since day one by some of the most skilled luthiers around, Gibson acoustic guitars have inspired countless players around the world. When you pick up a Gibson acoustic, you know you're getting the finest tonewoods, quality hardware, and incredible attention to detail - these instruments are built to sound great and stand the test of time. After moving from Kalamazoo, MI, to Nashville, TN, Gibson finally settled their acoustic operation in Bozeman, MT, where they continue making some of the finest guitars on the planet by hand.
