????Description: While researching the Gibson J-45 Bats, I ran across this one – the Gibson J-45 Bison. It also appears to have been a limited edition exclusive to Guitar Center released in late 2024. At the time of recording, these were sold out but still showed up on the Guitar Center website due to an inventory glitch. Kind of cliche, but cool!

Beautiful guitar.
Those chatter marks on the edge of the fretboard are completely egregious
Thanks a lot Austin, after this review I had to have it and somehow I got the last of the bison series. Now how did that happen, well mine was a floor model as well and a buyer did not appreciate his new guitar coming with buckle rash and sent it back. After reviewing the scratches and a considerable discount I bought it. I think they will polish out. Oh, I was being sarcastic with the “thanks a lot”I did not need this guitar! ????
Really like this!
It didn't sound dark at all! It sounded tinny and bright. TOO much treble. J-45's don't usually sound like that.
I will repeat this until you get it. there is no custom shop in bozeman, at least not as far as construction, the inlays, sure theres a group of artists there that do that work, are there custom colors? yes, but they are applied by the same guys in the same room as all the other acoustics. been there done that. its real. also the black case is known simply as the modern and the brown ones are known as originals, there is more thought put into the custom models case as there is in the construction, look at the miranda lambert, dave mustaines, and chris stapleton cases. please understand, its the toyota method, and is employed for maximum output.
That sounds great!
I love it
Not nearly as cool as the bats, but still pretty cool, and that fingerboard is gorgeous, one of the nicest Ive ever seen.
the bisons look ugly to me. i have a 66 J45 that is a toasty golden brown – was a cherry but completely faded.
I have to admit Gibson is getting better nowdays

trogly should i buy a greco or a burny les paul custom
Hey trogloy I’m want g to start playing again and was wondering .. is the early 2000’s Les paul standards the best bang for the buck on lps these days .. I’ve always loved early 90’s Les Paul’s but I’m tryn to stay around 2k -2300
i like it. it's got such a vintage vibe.
Given that Gibson acoustics are made in Bozeman, Montana, and that Montana is one of the states that has bison, I think it's actually cooler than the bats model. Sure, bats is Halloween cool, but bison is cool all year round.
A 'pick holder!' Wow, I usually hold mine with my fingers. Don't try to buffalo me!
THIS one's got THE TONE!????????
Thanks! I'll gladly await the Chibson version.????
The bridge pins look cheap but are actually not bad, I've worked at a guitar store for three years and the way to check for "quality" is to drop them over a hard surface, like a glass counter top, and listen for the material hardness. Gibsons are some of my favourites (they ring way better than better looking import pins). Of course bone is superior and you can also have wood or metal but those also slightly change the voice of your guitar (specially metal ones, even though they make your guitar louder).
Am I the only who thinks Trogly missed a great opportunity with the video title called "The Gi-Bison"?
what' the difference between a buffalo and a bison? You can't wash your hands in a buffalo.
J45 …what is there not to like ' …gorgeous vintage looking burst and that tone ' …Bison stuff is tasteful indeed but not for me, perfect for that Country gig, especially with the rich deep resonant tone.
Awesome
Gibson their cnc machine just cant do smaller .. that the whole reason for the bisons
7:12 The big bison guy is is prison (unless he’s released already, I don’t care)
NGD I just got my Custom Shop SGiraffe. Man you wouldn't believe the neck on this beast. No nibs – l'il tiny hooves instead ????
Beautiful guitar, I own two Martins and this episode makes me really gas for a J-45 hah! Happy Thanksgiving.
A Texas Longhorns guitar! ????
Burns have a guitar called the Bison, I wonder if there will be litigation LOL!
Rusty, binding, or poorly threaded truss rod / nut. Fun video!
Keep it! Totally animal themed!
Nice playing Trogly really enjoyed this one
Wow you are pretty good on acoustic play more acoustic you have a knack for it.
That fretboard is stunning!.
Skull Layouts lol
My 2023 J-45 Standard has a black nut.
Hmmm…
Yeah, ok. I like it.
