The Mojo King! This is a 1950 Gibson J-45 in almost all original condition with exception of the bridge. Once had a later Gibson pickguard installed, then removed and fit with original. Plays great with that sweet, and booming tone only these can deliver. Action is not bad, still very playable. Comfortable neck profile, big C shape. This one could eventually benefit from a neck reset, height at 12th fret is .74"  Has a repaired headstock crack (see pic) it's solid, and in stable condition. No cracks on body, except for a hairline on top lower bout, it's stable as well. Just loads of character really, a true relic. Checking, dings, and scratches are plentiful. This guitar is awesome, and a country/blues monster!
