Epiphone’s first Ltd. Ed. reissue of the “The Workhorse” J-45 earned it a “Mark of Excellence Award” from Guitar One magazine and the new Epiphone Ltd. Ed. 1963 J-45 once again makes a vintage legend affordable to everybody.The Workhorse

The original J-45 was first introduced at Gibson’s Kalamazoo factory in the early 30s as a no frills, high quality “big voiced” acoustic guitar, one of the first of its kind. As musical styles changed from jazz to R&B and honky tonk to rock and roll, the J-45 never went out of style. With fans as wide ranging as John Lennon and George Harrison, Lightnin’ Hopkins, Buddy Holly, Skip James, Keith Richards, and Noel Gallagher of Oasis, the J-45 is a must have for the serious acoustic guitar player.

The Ltd. Ed. 1963 J-45 has a vintage styled Rosewood reverse belly bridge and a compensated artificial bone saddle. And of course, the Ltd. Ed. 1963 J-45 is strung with medium Epiphone acoustic guitar strings and comes with Epiphone’s Limited Lifetime Warranty and Gibson’s world famous 24/7/365 Customer Service.
