The Epiphone J-45 Express is a scaled-down version of the iconic J-45, offering the same classic tone and feel in a more compact and portable package. This guitar is ideal for seasoned guitarists who need a travel-ready instrument and for aspiring players seeking a comfortable first guitar. With its shorter scale length and quality construction, the J-45 Express delivers exceptional playability and a surprisingly full sound.

Solid Spruce Top and Layered Mahogany Body — A Balanced Acoustic Voice

The J-45 Express features a solid spruce top and layered mahogany back and sides, a classic combination of tonewoods that produces a balanced and resonant acoustic voice. The solid spruce top delivers clarity and projection, while the layered mahogany back and sides add warmth and depth. This combination creates a versatile tonal palette that's suitable for a wide range of playing styles and musical genres.

Built-in Piezo Pickup — Amplify Your Sound

This J-45 Express comes equipped with a built-in passive piezo under-saddle pickup, allowing you to amplify your sound for performances or recording sessions. Whether you're playing on stage, in the studio, or just jamming with friends, this pickup ensures that your guitar's natural acoustic tone shines through.

Shorter Scale Length and Comfortable Neck — Enhanced Playability

The J-45 Express features a shorter 22.68" scale length, making it more compact and easier to play, especially for beginners or those with smaller hands. The mahogany neck with a C-profile and laurel fretboard offers a comfortable playing experience, allowing for effortless transitions between chords and leads.
