Gibson J45 Banner Shootout Maple VS Mahogany | Can You Hear The Difference In Tonewood?

We asked Gibson to make us a 'made-to-measure' J45 Maple Banner from the 1942 series. That guitar was a very specific and very rare example of the J45 that Gibson made only in limited quantities during the Second World War. In this video, Milo will compare this unique guitar with a 'regular' Banner J45 with Mahogany back & sides. Enjoy!
