Solid Wood Construction: The Epiphone J-45 features all-solid wood construction, with a solid mahogany back and sides, and a solid Sitka spruce top. This combination provides warmth, clarity, and resonance, contributing to the guitar’s rich and full sound.

Classic Body Shape: The guitar has a sloped-shouldered dreadnought body shape, which is designed for comfort during long playing sessions. This shape ensures both a balanced sound and easy handling for a variety of playing styles.

Comfortable Neck Profile: The rounded “C” neck profile provides a smooth and ergonomic playing experience, especially for players who prefer a traditional neck shape. It promotes easy chord transitions and smooth fretboard navigation.

Fishman Presys VT Pickup System: The Fishman Presys VT under-saddle pickup and preamp system delivers clear, accurate amplified sound. With its integrated volume and tone controls mounted on the soundhole, this system makes it easy to adjust to your desired tone during performances.

Classic Kalamazoo Headstock Shape: The guitar features a 60s-style Kalamazoo headstock shape, which enhances its vintage look. It is both visually striking and a subtle nod to the original J-45 design.

Vintage Aged Gloss Finish: The Aged Vintage Sunburst gloss finish gives the guitar a timeless, vintage appeal, providing both aesthetic beauty and a durable finish that enhances its longevity.

Laurel Fingerboard with Mother-of-Pearl Inlays: The Indian laurel fingerboard is adorned with elegant mother-of-pearl dot inlays, adding a touch of sophistication to the instrument.

Tortoise Shell Pickguard: The tortoise shell pickguard in J-45 shape not only provides protection for the body but also complements the vintage aesthetic of the guitar.

Bridge and Saddle for Improved Sustain: The reverse belly laurel bridge and bone saddle work together to optimize string tension and improve sustain. This ensures that every note rings out clearly, whether played acoustically or plugged in.

Adjustable Truss Rod: The dual-action truss rod allows precise adjustments to the neck, ensuring optimal playability and comfort. It gives players the ability to tailor the neck to their preferred setup.

Additional Features: The guitar comes with ivory bridge pins, dual strap buttons for secure strap attachment, and an optional hardshell or EpiLite™ case for safe transportation.
