Epiphone 1942 Banner J-45 Electro-Acoustic in Vintage Sunburst

Epiphone, in partnership with the Gibson Custom Shop, is proud to introduce the Epiphone 1942 Banner J-45, an incredible recreation of the legendary original "Workhorse" model from 1942.

Key Features

• Thermally Aged Spruce Top – With the Spruce effectively cooked, the moisture from the wood is removed and gives an inspiring resonant tone.
• V Shaped Neck Profile - The rounded shape of the soft V-shape allows for a comfortable grip and easy access to all frets. This makes it a great option for players who like to play chords and lead guitar.
• Included Hardcase – This guitar comes with a fitted hardcase to protect the guitar in style.

This exceptional acoustic guitar has a thermally aged, solid red Spruce top, solid Mahogany back and sides, and a one-piece Mahogany neck with a laurel fretboard, a V-shaped profile, and mother-of-pearl dot inlays.

The headstock features the world-famous Gibson "open book" profile and has the Inspired by Gibson Custom double diamond logo etched on the back and an "Epiphone Inspired by Gibson" banner on the front. It is stage and studio-ready with the built-in L.R. Baggs TM VTC preamp and under-saddle piezo pickup system and a hardshell case with the Inspired by Gibson Custom logo is also included.
