2022 Gibson SJ-200 Original

THE GUITARCHIVE - This guitar is in mint condition, as good or better than any brand new guitar. It was made in 2022 in April at the Gibson factory in Bozeman, Montana.

The Gibson SJ-200 is arguably the world's most famous acoustic guitar and is often referred to as "King of the Flat-Tops." Since its release in 1937, its wide use by American artists has made the Super Jumbo one of the most widely played acoustic guitars of our time. The most striking features of the new SJ-200 Original include the carved four bar moustache bridge, an engraved tortoise pick guard, mother-of-pearl crown fretboard and headstock inlay, and exquisite flamed maple back and sides. The SJ-200 is an American original with its shape and elegant appearance.

You can demo instruments like this at The Local Pickup guitar showroom in Rock Hill, SC (Charlotte, NC).
