New and In Full Production

You can never have too much of a good thing and the new J-45 Cutaway is just that! For the first time ever, Gibson offers this iconic model as a new, modern cutaway. When you play the new J-45 Cutaway you'll notice that it responds exactly to the player's style and technique - powerful one moment, and soft and mellow the next. This characteristic of Round Shoulder guitars is certainly one of the main attractions that players have to Gibson's famous J-45 model, affectionately called "The Workhorse".

Details
• Body Design: For the first time ever, the J-45 is offered with a cutaway for full fingerboard access
• Neck: A comfortable slim taper neck profile
• Tuners: Crowned with superior nickel Grover tuners
• Finish: Vintage Sunburst finish is hand sprayed for a one-of-a-kind look
• Pickup: Upgraded with an LR Baggs VTC pickup system
• Tonewoods: Classic tonewoods mahogany and Sitka spruce make up this tribute to Gibson's iconic model
• Inlay: Mother-of-pearl inlay dresses the headstock, fingerboard, and bridge
• Pickguard: A traditional tear drop shape pickguard wonderfully complements the beautiful lines of the J-45
• Nut and Saddle: A Tusq nut and saddle provide consistent tone, string balance as well as precise string spacing

I tested playing it and the sound is really solid and with the right balance. I decided to take it and got home with it. Thanks to the salesperson (can't remember his name) for suggesting

Gibson has improved the J-45 - Can it be true? Yes! All the wonderful qualities of Gibson's J-45 have been accentuated by the addition a cutaway to its line-up. Sounds like a J-45, plays like a J-45 - one of the music industry's iconic benchmarks! If you can't be bothered with buying a used J-45 (i.e. scratches, dings, etc.), then, this is for you. Don't bother with the standard J-45 - you'll wish for a cutaway when reaching for high notes. Get this one.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
