I have a J45 true vintage. This model is indeed a true vintage based on the specs of the 1942 J45, as I understand it. I love the tone of my guitar and it is feather light. The fret wire is small, true to guitars of that era. The tuners, while visual appealing and true to the era, are not as precise as modern day tuners. I prefer the aesthetics of the True Vintage and there is not so much tonal differences to my ears. If you can play the different models, get the one that appeals the most to you. That it was a gift from my wife makes it the best guitar on the planet from my perspective.
