Epiphone J-45 Standard EC Acoustic Guitar - Vintage Sunburst

The Epiphone J-45 Standard EC Acoustic Guitar in Vintage Sunburst is an “Inspired by Gibson” model that brings the legendary tone and feel of the iconic Gibson J-45™ into an accessible, player-friendly package. Known as “The Workhorse” since its introduction in 1942, the J-45 has been a cornerstone of acoustic music across genres, from folk and country to rock and pop. This Epiphone edition adds a cutaway design, giving guitarists easier access to upper frets for greater versatility on stage and in the studio.

Crafted with all-solid tonewoods, the J-45 Standard EC delivers a warm, resonant voice that improves as it ages. Its solid spruce top paired with solid mahogany back and sides provides the classic tonal balance the J-45 is celebrated for—rich lows, clear mids, and sparkling highs. The comfortable Rounded “C” neck profile, paired with a smooth rosewood fretboard, makes it ideal for both strumming and fingerstyle playing.

Equipped with Fishman® electronics, the J-45 Standard EC is stage- and studio-ready. The Fishman S-Core pickup and Presys II preamp offer natural amplified tone with side-mounted controls for volume, bass, treble, phase switch, and a built-in tuner. A bone nut, Grover® Rotomatic® tuners, and premium Epiphone craftsmanship ensure stable tuning and reliable performance. Finished in Vintage Sunburst and complete with a premium gig bag, this guitar is designed for working musicians and enthusiasts alike.
