Epiphone J-45 Studio Acoustic Guitar, Natural

In 1936, Gibson introduced the ‘Advanced Jumbo’ (AJ) acoustic guitar. With it’s one-inch wider 16 inch lower bout, rounded or sloped shoulder dreadnought shape and a 25.5 inch scale length, the AJ was a powerful flat-top referred to in later Gibson literature as an ‘acoustic cannon’. Today, this legendary design is carried over with the Epiphone AJ-220S acoustic guitar.

The J-45 Studio has a unique bell-like shape, a larger lower bout, and a small round upper bout which gives this new addition to our Advanced Jumbo family of guitars a unique voice. The J-45 Studio is made with Epiphone’s century’s worth of experience in crafting world-class guitars that are meant to be played. Epiphone stands behind every guitar they make with a Limited Lifetime Warranty and Gibson Brands™ Customer Service. (Previously called AJ-220S)
