Gibson J-45 Century 12-Fret Solid Sitka / Mahogany Left-Handed Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar Satin Vintage Sunburst - OCRS4C12VSL

Left-Handed 12-Fret J-45 Warmth With a Satin Vintage Sunburst Finish

The Gibson J-45 Century 12-Fret Left-Handed in Satin Vintage Sunburst gives left-handed acoustic players the warm, responsive character of a 12-fret round-shoulder J-45. Its Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides produce a balanced voice with clear note separation, while the thin satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish keeps the guitar feeling smooth, understated and comfortable in regular use.

The 12-fret neck-to-body joint is the main reason this model responds differently from a standard 14-fret layout. By moving the bridge plate closer to the wider, more active area of the body, the J-45 Century 12-Fret delivers a warmer, punchier and more resonant sound. That design is especially useful for fingerstyle players, lighter pick attack and singer-songwriter accompaniment, where the guitar needs to react easily to touch and support the vocal rather than overpower it.

The mahogany neck has a SlimTaper 12-Fret profile for an efficient fretting-hand feel across the 24.75" scale length. A 19-fret rosewood fingerboard, mother-of-pearl dot inlays, bone nut and saddle, TUSQ bridge pins, rectangle rosewood bridge, L-00 style pickguard and 3-on-a-plate tuners with cream buttons complete the acoustic setup. A Century Series tweed hardshell case is included.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the left-handed J-45 Century 12-Fret is a strong choice for players who want a warm, touch-sensitive Gibson acoustic with a more intimate playing feel and a traditional Satin Vintage Sunburst look.
