Thx for the help

Can Pm me if you have any info on this matter, thx again

If the J-45 Custom is really as rare and new as you make it out to be, I'd suggest that you CALL UP the dealer i.e. Swee Lee and request for an special order. www.sweelee.sg

Such queries can be satiated by a simple phone call and should not even necessitate a thread. Very often, guitars that are very rare and may potentially not be in high demand (given our wretched economic climate) will not be on display for obvious reasons, and will hence necessitate special arrangements with the dealer in question.

I would check out Swee Lee to see if they are getting it...they usually stock quite a number of nice Gibsons as well as Fenders.

Why not the standard J-45? Great tone as it is. Probably about to get one myself this weekend.

IMHO, the humble appearance of the J-45 is part of its appeal. That's why it has the affectionate nickname "The Workhorse".

One of my all time favorite acoustics.

Well if that's the case, you should definitely go for the Custom if that's what you want. It will definitely be unique and will probably hold its resale value better because of that if you decided to sell it one day.

For resale, I think the J45 VOS will hold value better.
