The Gibson J-45 12-String takes one of the most iconic acoustic guitars ever built and adds a whole new layer of depth, shimmer, and dimension. Known worldwide as “The Workhorse,” the J-45 has been a trusted companion for generations of songwriters, performers, and recording artists. In its 12-string form, that familiar warmth and balance are joined by a lush, chiming character that fills the room with rich harmonics and unmistakable presence. From ringing open chords to intricate picked passages, this guitar delivers the kind of sound that inspires songs the moment you pick it up.

Built with a solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides, the J-45 12-String retains the woody warmth and punch that have made the original such a favorite. The shorter 24.75” scale length and comfortable SlimTaper neck help make the playing experience surprisingly approachable for a 12-string, while traditional hand-scalloped X-bracing allows the guitar to breathe with impressive volume, sustain, and dynamic response. Whether you’re accompanying vocals or creating expansive layers in the studio, the voice is full, balanced, and unmistakably Gibson.

Finished in a classic Vintage Sunburst and equipped with premium appointments throughout, this guitar blends timeless style with modern performance. The LR Baggs VTC electronics faithfully capture its rich acoustic character for stage and studio use, while Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners help keep all twelve strings performing at their best. Complete with a Gibson hardshell case, the J-45 12-String is a beautiful evolution of a legendary design. Available now at Haggerty’s Music.
