Here we have a super cool acoustic from the Gibson Custom Shop, the 1942 Banner J-45 in Vintage Sunburst. This guitar has the period correct appointments that give you the feel and sound of a vintage instrument in a new guitar. It is a joy to play and has a wonderful neck shape that lends itself very well to chording. The nitro finish is nicely applied and will break in well overtime. The Banner logo pays homage to the WWII era when women manufactured Gibson guitars and the logo "Only A Gibson is Good Enough" was introduced.
