Description
The Gibson SJ-200 60s Original recreates the legendary jumbo acoustic as it appeared during the 1960s when the model became a defining sound on countless recordings and stages. Known as the King of the Flat-Tops this guitar pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with an AAA figured maple body delivering powerful projection strong low-end authority and clear open treble response. The expansive body size produces a wide dynamic range that suits bold strumming articulate fingerstyle and expressive accompaniment across many styles. A two-piece maple neck with a walnut stringer features a comfortable Round profile and a slightly narrower nut width making first-position chords easier to grip and reducing fatigue during long sessions. Decorative appointments including graduated crown inlays an ornate moustache bridge with pearl detailing and classic pickguard graphics reflect authentic period style. The SJ-200 60s Original is fitted with an L.R. Baggs VTC pickup providing natural amplified tone for stage and studio use. Soundhole-mounted controls allow quick adjustment without distraction. Supplied in a Gibson hardshell case this instrument is ready for touring recording and long-term ownership as a classic acoustic.
