Part of Epiphone's Inspired by Gibson collection, the Epiphone 1942 Banner J-45 is an incredible recreation of the legendary original Workhorse model from 1942. This exceptional acoustic has a thermally aged, Vintage Original Sheen finished solid red spruce top, solid mahogany back and sides and a one-piece mahogany neck with a laurel fingerboard — showing off a V-shape profile and mother-of-pearl dot inlays.

It is stage and studio ready with the built-in L.R. Baggs VTC preamp and under-saddle piezo pickup system, which lets you plug-and-play instantly into your favorite amplification system. The headstock features the world-famous Gibson open-book profile and has the Inspired by Gibson Custom double diamond logo etched on the back, and an Epiphone Inspired by Gibson banner on the front. Bring the legendary Workhorse back to the modern stage — the Epiphone 1942 Banner J-45 is ready now at Replay Guitar Exchange!
