Description

The Gibson 1942 Banner J-45 reissue captures the wartime-inspired J-45 look, with a Sunburst finish, mahogany back and sides, and the simple, dry character associated with the Banner-era design. This 2025 example has also been fitted with a K&K Pure Mini, adding stage-ready functionality while keeping the guitar visually understated.

Presented in good used condition, this guitar remains original aside from the pickup and the finish on the back of the neck having been sanded. It comes housed in a hardshell case and offers a broken-in, player-friendly take on Gibson’s classic Banner J-45.
