Why the Gibson J-45 Changed the World ★ Acoustic Tuesday

Описание к видео Why the Gibson J-45 Changed the World ★ Acoustic Tuesday

The Gibson J-45 is one of the most iconic acoustic guitars in the world.
I'm going to give you 5 reasons why you NEED a Gibson J-45, plus so much more.

Before I continue...THANK YOU for leaving a #guitargratitude in our Thanksgiving episode. It is TRULY inspirational to read your comments.

To kick things off, I'm giving you the 5 reasons why the Gibson J-45 belongs in your guitarsenal. From the excellent craftsmanship to the storied history, the J-45 is on-par—if not more iconic—than a Stratocaster or Les Paul.

Second, I'll give you a sneak peek at "American Workhorse: A Documentary Film on the J-45." It's currently in production, but I am so stoked to see a film dedicated solely to the Gibson J-45.

Too often guitars are just a part of a documentary—never the focus on a documentary. Let me know if you hear anything more about the release of this film!

Next, I'll feature Russ Barenberg. Russ is unique in that he uses a Gibson J-45 to play songs that don't traditionally require the twang and tone of the J-45.

While Russ's Gibson J-45 makes him sound stellar, his technique and melody creation is truly magical—a superpower! To check out more of Russ's work visit his website here: https://russbarenberg.com/

Finally, we're going to talk about 5 alternatives to a Gibson J-45.

Why?

While they're iconic, Gibson J-45s aren't for everyone. I created a list of 5 Gibson J-45 alternatives that I've played and reviewed myself. Here's the list:

5) Eastman E10SS
4) Bourgeois Slope D
3) Collings CJ35
2) Kopp K35
1) Santa Cruz Vintage Southerner

All of these guitars give the Gibson J-45 a run for its money. And, I'm not saying they're *better*...I'm just saying they're different ;)
