{"product_id":"gibson-montana-j-45-sustainable-2019-antique-natural-696867","title":"Gibson Montana J-45 Sustainable 2019 Antique Natural LEFTY","description":"Gibson's 2019 Sustainable series offers a new take on the acoustic guitar, one designed and built with sustainability in mind. This J-45 Sustainable 2019 is constructed with a responsibly harvested walnut back and sides, as well as a richlite fingerboard and bridge made from recycled content mixed with pulp from responsibly sourced and harvested trees. It's about as natural as it gets, all the way down to the hand-rubbed beeswax finish which helps to produce a beautiful, open tone to match the guitar's distinctly organic look. This guitar is left-handed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAbout Gibson Montana:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLuthier Orville Gibson founded the Gibson Mandolin-Guitar Mfg. Co. Ltd. in Kalamazoo, MI in 1902. Its original aim was to make mandolins and mandolin-family instruments. Over the last 100-plus years, Gibson Brands, Inc., as it is now known, has since evolved into the world's premier manufacturer of semi-hollow and hollow body electric guitars, as well as a celebrated portfolio of innovative solid-body and acoustic models.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome people hear their own inner voices with great clearness. And they live by what they hear. Such people become crazy... or they become legend.\" So wrote Montana author Jim Harrison, perhaps about the master luthiers of Gibson Montana, which produces all of Gibson's acoustic guitars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody Shape:\u003c\/b\u003e J-45\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Sitka spruce\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBack and Side Wood: \u003c\/b\u003eWalnut\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBracing:\u003c\/b\u003e Traditional hand-scalloped X-bracing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Multi-ply top, single-ply back\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFinish:\u003c\/b\u003e Hand rubbed wax\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e Slim Taper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/b\u003e 24.75''\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Richlite\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard Radius:\u003c\/b\u003e 12''\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNumber of Frets:\u003c\/b\u003e 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrets: \u003c\/b\u003eStandard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNut Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Tusq\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNut Width:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.725''\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInlays:\u003c\/b\u003e Diamonds and arrows, wood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeckjoint:\u003c\/b\u003e Compound dovetail neck-to-body joint\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTuner Plating:\u003c\/b\u003e Nickel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBridge: \u003c\/b\u003eTraditional belly up\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSaddle Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Tusq\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTuning Machines:\u003c\/b\u003e Grover Rotomatics w\/ kidney buttons\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePickguard:\u003c\/b\u003e Tear drop, walnut\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTruss Rod Cover:\u003c\/b\u003e Walnut\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBridge Pins:\u003c\/b\u003e Tusq\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePickup:\u003c\/b\u003e LR Baggs VTC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eControls: \u003c\/b\u003e1 Volume, 1 Tone \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eStrings:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.053, 0.042, 0.032, 0.024, 0.016, 0.012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCase: \u003c\/b\u003eGibson Hardshell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther:\u003c\/b\u003e Includes Gibson Accessory Kit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlease Note:\u003c\/b\u003e The item displayed in the images may not be the actual item you receive.\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":34294920937607,"sku":"RS45SUN19L-UKT","price":2143.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0343\/4368\/2183\/products\/gibson-acoustic-guitars-dreadnought-gibson-montana-j-45-sustainable-2019-antique-natural-lefty-rs45sun19l-ukt-28455614152839.jpg?v=1648323495","url":"https:\/\/www.chicagomusicexchange.com\/en-ca\/products\/gibson-montana-j-45-sustainable-2019-antique-natural-696867","provider":"Chicago Music Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
