    I’m in the UK and my J-45 is now 6 months old. Every time I pick her up I get as excited as the day I unboxed her. A truly awesome guitar.

      @riffraffrichard i just dropped a tuner on it.Put a big ol dent in it.Actually it's a small dent about pen size, but I still notice it.

      @ it’s annoying when that happens but ultimately a guitar is better out and about being played than kept in its case and safe from any scratches or dents. You got a great one the sounds amazing, it’ll open up more too as it gets older! Besides little playing marks give it a bit of character.

    Beautiful guitar . Sounds really good . Wish I could have heard you play it a little more .Enjoy it . You have a good wife . The guitars ,the turntable , reciever and tower speakers . My wife also has given me numerous guitars as gifts over the last 32 years . The 20 year old Boston acoustic towers are being stored in my attic until I can renovate basement , but I do have six guitars hanging on wall in our small living room and one of them is a j45 avant guarde . Also have plenty others under the bed in their cases . Like I said we have good wifes .

    nice one did you buy it on credit from Sweetwater or was that one of the ones down there about fifteen hundred bucks I know a couple of those big J's there around about 3,500 but they do a pretty good on offering credit kind of like financing a boat or something have fun playing it.
    enjoy the humidipaks they work really good I've been using them about every two to three months I just buy the inserts and change them out just to play it safe but it's been doing good holding the humidity well

    • @coreyjohnston4673
      @coreyjohnston4673  6 років тому +1

      It doesn't get real humid in Nashville, so I don't really need the humidity pks. I can't say what I paid for the guitar. Thank you for watching!

      @@coreyjohnston4673 That's good but be careful of under humidity..That's why I like them..Before put away drop thru soundhole and below neck until they harden kept at great even humidity level. the real nice part is you don't even have to keep ordering the whole kit you could just order the inserts I've been very pleased I noticed a difference on two of my Alvarez's. we're not excessively humid in Chicago either sometimes it just depends on your house but that's the one thing I do like I have used them now for almost a year and two of the more investment guitars and I've been quite pleased with them especially as easy as they are and the fact that they actually do work because once they start to harden after about two to three months you realize that's exactly what you want want the little inserts to do and it definitely shows that there is an effect as if you didn't use them

      @mikeycroucher4299 OH not much differences, other than price #1, and number 2, Esthetics. The binding is more aged, and the pick guard is period correct. Other than that, there's no difference between the two. Did that help?
