Banner J-45 from the Dark Side
This Gibson Custom Select 1942 Banner J-45™ features a custom Dark Walnut finish in a gloss nitrocellulose lacquer. Gibson Custom Select offers customizations of existing models, resulting in unique instruments that are rare to find in the wild. Customizations can include exotic tonewoods, alternative electronics, and more. These details are handpicked by Gibson’s experts who have a keen eye for detail. Crafted by skilled artisans in Bozeman, Montana, Gibson Custom Select instruments are made in small batches. This customized Banner J-45 wears a custom Dark Walnut finish with a gloss nitrocellulose lacquer.
The Gibson J-45 first appeared in Gibson’s lineup in 1942 and featured the banner logo until the end of 1945. These guitars are commonly referred to as being from the “banner-era,” made during World War II when there were material and workforce constraints. These guitars did not originally feature a truss rod due to the lack of metal that was available during the conflict. To compensate for the lack of a truss rod, the neck was made larger to withstand string tension better. Gibson acoustic guitars from this era were made by the “Kalamazoo gals,” who took the places of the men in the factory. Most of the workforce were seamstresses, with excellent attention to detail, making these vintage guitars highly desirable.
The Gibson Custom 1942 Banner J-45 is a modern recreation of the famed “banner-era” J-45, made from 1942 to 1945, but with the added stability of a truss rod. This gives the player added adjustability for changing environments. The guitar features a thermally aged red spruce top, a 1942 Banner J-45 Historic neck profile, Gibson script and banner logos silkscreened in gold on the peghead, and open-gear tuning machines. Under the top is red spruce X-bracing, fixed with hide glue to provide the top stability against string tension. The neck profile is modeled directly from vintage examples, which have a wider nut width than the typical J-45 Standard or other non-reissue instruments, measuring 1.77 inches rather than 1.73 inches.
This Gibson Custom Select 1942 Banner J-45 features a custom Dark Walnut finish that suits the model well. This Dark Walnut finish resembles a furniture finish commonly used during this time. The Banner J-45 core offerings only come in either a VOS or Murphy Lab Aged finish, so this gloss iteration gives the model a shiny new look on a classic model. Included with the guitar is a Gibson Custom Certificate of Authenticity and a reissue-style hardshell case.
