Thermally Aged Solid Wood Construction

Just like vintage classics from the 1950s, the SJ-200 is crafted from all solid woods that resonate freely. Its thermally aged Sitka spruce top and maple back and sides have been treated to mimic the molecular changes of wood that occurs over decades of aging. The result is a warm, rich tone with articulate highs and tight bass. The flame maple neck also provides a smooth feel and visual flair.

Iconic Super Jumbo Style

With its distinctive square-shouldered body and elegant mustache bridge, the Inspired by Gibson Custom SJ-200 embodies the look of Gibson's most coveted acoustic. Its enlarged soundhole produces a robust low end and projecting highs. The engraved pickguard and crown inlays are touches of opulence. Visually and sonically, this guitar makes a bold statement.

Plug in and Play

While the SJ-200 sounds stunning acoustically, it also comes equipped with an L.R. Baggs VTC under-saddle pickup so you can plug in for live performance or recording. The preamp provides tone shaping to optimize your sound through an amplifier or PA. When unplugged, the pickup causes no tonal coloration. You get the best of both worlds with this guitar.
