Margo Price’s New Signature Gibson Acoustic Guitar is a Dream

Margo Price and Gibson just unveiled the signature acoustic guitar of my dreams with tiny-handed players like me in mind: the Margo Price J-45 acoustic guitar from Gibson. 

This baby is a true beauty, featuring a stunning red-tailed hawk design featured on the double pickguards. It’s finished in a gorgeous Heritage Cherry Sunburst, and comes fully-equipped with L.R. Baggs electronics, so it’s studio and stage ready right out of the included hardshell case, according to Gibson. Margo drew inspiration inspired by Red-tailed Hawks, which feature prominently on the distinctive double 50s-style pickguards of her new J-45 signature guitar.

“This guitar is so special to me, and we really put the time into making it exactly what I wanted,” said Price, a mom of two, in a press release. “It’s strong but soft, just like me, and has the duality of being durable and lightweight, it’s got a slim body, so my tiny hands can reach everything they need to but it still has a really clear, loud sound that cuts through with a lot of clarity.”

The red-tailed hawks were intentional, she added.

“Red Tailed hawks have always been symbolic to me,” said Price. “I see them everywhere, and I always have, as they’re common all over the U.S., but to me, they’re otherworldly, and they always come to me in my time of need with messages of strength and perseverance.”

Handcrafted by the expert luthiers at Gibson acoustic in Bozeman, Montana, the Gibson Margo Price J-45 is available worldwide via Gibson.com, in the Gibson Garage Nashville and London, and at authorized Gibson dealers.
