Another quality Guitar from Lovies Guitars!
Lovies Guitars is excited to present this 1968 Gibson B-45 12-String Acoustic Guitar finished in Natural. Produced during Gibson’s golden era of acoustic craftsmanship, the B-45 12-String is a wonderfully distinctive vintage instrument that delivers the lush shimmer, rich harmonic content, and unmistakable chorus-like character that only a great vintage 12-string can provide. These guitars have become increasingly sought after for their warm, woody voice and classic late-’60s Gibson personality.
This B-45 produces a full, ringing sound with excellent note separation, rich overtones, and the expansive shimmer that has made 12-string acoustics a staple of folk, rock, Americana, and singer-songwriter music. The aged tonewoods have opened up beautifully over the decades, resulting in a mature and responsive voice with warmth, depth, and vintage character that modern instruments simply cannot replicate.
The Natural finish displays extensive vintage checking throughout, giving the guitar a wonderfully authentic appearance that reflects nearly six decades of musical history. The heavy finish checking adds substantial vintage appeal while showcasing the instrument’s age and originality.
This guitar is all original (OG) and includes a Gig Bag (GB).
Condition: 8.7/10 – Good. Heavy finish checking throughout the instrument. Light pickguard lift is present. A top crack has been professionally repaired. No cracks are present on the back or sides. Overall, this is a structurally solid vintage 12-string with honest aging and excellent vintage character.
