Peach Guitars | BRAND NEW | Gibson Keb' Mo' 3.0 12-Fret J-45

07 Feb 2023

Once described as "a living link to the seminal Delta blues that travelled up the Mississippi River and across the expanse of America.", Keb’ Mo’ is keeping traditional blues alive and thriving thanks to his unique blend of blues, folk and jazz.

With 5, (that’s right, FIVE!) Grammy Awards from 12 nominations, Keb’ Mo’ has been blazing a trail for over 30 years. As a long-time Gibson artist, he has already put his name to a pair of incredible signature models, and 2023 sees us welcome in a third, the Gibson Keb’ Mo’ 3.0 12-fret J-45 in Vintage Sunburst.

The Gibson J-45 is one of the most iconic acoustic guitars of all time, gracing the hands of some of the most illustrious players and artists to ever walk the earth. With a workmanlike approach to prising music from your fingers, the Gibson J-45 has a reputation for effortless playability and a rich, full tone that is as distinct as its appearance.

The Keb’ Mo’ 3.0 J-45 takes this pioneering guitar and sculpts it to meet a new set of requirements. Fusing traditional designs with new technologies and ideas, the 3.0 J-45 is more than just a blues infused workhorse, it opens up a whole new sonic palette.

The body is crafted from Mahogany, a time tested tonewood option, and is paired with a thermally aged Sitka Spruce top. Offering a warmth and tonal nuance that only thermal ageing can deliver, it’s got that vintage acoustic vibe down to a fine art.

The Mahogany neck features a 12th fret join and a 25” scale length. Perfectly suited to a number of playing styles and applications, the 12th fret join gives this guitar a more compact feel without compromising on the fuller bodied tone. The custom Keb’ Mo’ profile is real comfortable underhand, perfect for whiling away the hours and playing those swampy grooves!

For a guitar steeped in vintage touches, it’s easy to overlook the pickup system, but fear not, this guitar is equipped with the very best, an LR Baggs VTC with soundhole mounted controls. Clear, precise and unobtrusively positioned, the LR Baggs VTC doesn’t colour the natural tone, it just keeps it loud and clear. 

We really dig it, and we’re pretty sure you’re going to as well. Keb’ Mo’ is an understated master of guitar and a real professor of traditional acoustic blues, and with a guitar like this in his hands, well, we’re expecting more toe tappin’, whiskey soaked delta grooves!
