This second hand acoustic guitar is in great condition.

Includes original Epiphone Hard Case

The Slash J‑45 November Burst is one of the most compelling modern J‑45 variants Gibson has released. It keeps the soul of the classic J‑45, warmth, punch, and that unmistakable slope‑shoulder thump ,but adds Slash’s signature tweaks: a slightly more powerful voice, premium feel, and a stage‑ready pickup system that actually does justice to the guitar’s acoustic tone.

It’s a J‑45 with attitude. Not radically different, but definitely more muscular and expressive.

 Build & Construction

The Slash J‑45 uses the same high‑end construction as Gibson’s modern USA acoustics, with a few signature touches.

Core Specs

• Top: Solid Sitka spruce
• Back & sides: Solid mahogany
• Neck: Mahogany, rounded “Slash Custom” profile
• Fingerboard: Indian rosewood
• Scale length: 24.75"
• Nut width: 1.725"
• Bracing: Traditional hand‑scalloped X‑bracing
• Finish: Nitrocellulose November Burst (exclusive to Slash models)

Slash‑Specific Touches

• C‑shape neck that’s slightly fuller than a standard J‑45
• Custom truss rod cover (Slash signature)
• Gold hardware
• November Burst finish unique to the Slash line

It feels like a J‑45 that’s been subtly hot‑rodded rather than redesigned.

 Tone & Voice

This is where the Slash J‑45 earns its keep.

Acoustic Tone

• Warm, woody low‑end typical of a mahogany J‑45
• Strong, punchy midrange that sits beautifully in a mix
• Clear, articulate highs without harshness
• More projection and headroom than a standard J‑45
• Responsive to dynamics, soft fingerstyle to aggressive strumming

The Slash neck and setup  gives it a slightly tighter low‑end and more focused attack, making it ideal for rock, Americana, and singer‑songwriter work.

Compared to a Standard J‑45

• Slightly louder
• Slightly brighter
• More midrange bite
• Feels more record‑ready straight out of the case

It still sounds unmistakably like a J‑45, just with more muscle.

Electronics

• LR Baggs VTC undersaddle pickup + soundhole volume/tone

This is one of the best factory systems Gibson uses:

• Natural, warm plugged‑in tone
• Minimal quack
• Easy to dial in on stage
• Doesn’t clutter the guitar with controls

 Playability

The Slash neck is a highlight:

• Rounded C profile that fills the hand without being chunky
• Low, clean action from the factory
• Short scale makes bends and vibrato easy
• Comfortable for long sessions

It’s a neck that encourages expressive playing—very much in line with Slash’s style.

 Aesthetics

The November Burst finish is stunning in person:

• Deep, rich burst with a slightly vintage vibe
• Nitro gloss that will age beautifully
• Gold hardware adds a premium, custom‑shop feel
• Classic J‑45 slope‑shoulder silhouette

It’s one of the best‑looking modern Gibson acoustics.

Build Quality & Reliability

2021 was a strong year for Gibson acoustics . The included Gibson hard case is high‑end and roadworthy.

 Strengths

• Warm, powerful J‑45 tone with extra projection
• Beautiful November Burst finish
• Slash neck profile is extremely playable
• LR Baggs VTC is excellent for live use
• Premium feel and hardware
• Nitro finish that will age gracefully

The Slash J‑45 November Burst is a superb acoustic: classic J‑45 warmth with a more assertive, modern voice. It’s built for players who want a workhorse that can handle studio sessions, songwriting, and live performance with equal confidence.

If you love the J‑45 sound but want something with a bit more edge and personality, this is one of the best options Gibson has released in years.
