Epiphone Slash J-45 - vermillion burst

The timeless Dreadnought Slope Shoulder J-45 has been a favorite of legendary musicians since its release in 1942. The EPIPHONE Slash J-45 steel-string acoustic guitar (EISLASHJ45VMNH3) is a close relative, offering excellent craftsmanship at a very attractive price. All-solid-wood construction (Sitka spruce top, mahogany body, Laurier fingerboard), LR Baggs VTC preamp. The Laurier fingerboard is a high-quality alternative to rosewood. With its superior density and stability, its acoustic performance is comparable to that of Brazilian rosewood. Since the change of management in 2018, the good news at Gibson has been one after the other: major investments to rehabilitate the production tool and offer higher, more homogeneous and consistent production quality, revised pricing, redesigned ranges for greater clarity, and a lot of new products to top it all off.

MaintenanceNitrocellulose varnish, as on vintage Gibson instruments, plays a major role in the instrument's "breathing" thanks to its porous nature (vibrations are not muffled by the varnish). To avoid damaging your guitar, we recommend Hercules stands with specially formulated, non-abrasive foams; for maintenance, Gibson's Vintage Restoration Kit ensures effective cleaning and polishing without risk.
