Description

You��ll appreciate the rosewood back and sides matched with a Sitka spruce top for a warm, resonant sound that has helped define acoustic music for over 70 years. Own a piece of Gibson history with the ageless SJ-200.
Iconic Body Shape Produces Legendary Tone
The SJ-200��s immediately recognizable Super Jumbo body produces a rich, savory tone that musicians have favored for decades. With its wide lower bout and narrow waist, the SJ-200 projects powerfully while maintaining tight, articulate bass. Its shape and size also provide a large soundboard, resulting in substantial volume and sustain. It��s no wonder the SJ-200 silhouette has endured the ages and continues to inspire new generations of players with its legacy.
Crafted With Premium Tonewoods
The Gibson SJ-200 Standard Rosewood sings with a vintage voice that��s true to the earliest examples of the instrument, forgoing the more pervasive maple body found in later models for a richer, more harmonically complex option. Rosewood back and sides provide warmth, depth and projection, while the Sitka spruce top offers clarity and articulation. Combine them, and these tonewoods create an acoustic guitar voicing that flatters strumming, fingerpicking and melodic plucking in any genre. The SJ-200 may have been born almost 80 years ago, but it never goes out of sonic style.
Comfortable Neck and Fingerboard
The Gibson SJ-200 Standard Rosewood has a mahogany neck with a comfortable rounded profile that plays as smooth as silk, further aided by a roomy 25.5" scale length. Its rosewood fingerboard has graduated crown mother-of-pearl inlays and a 43.815 mm nut width, which is ideal for complex chords and intricate lead lines. Gold Grover Imperial tuners offer pitch stability and vintage-correct aesthetics to complete the guitar��s timeless appearance.
Plug in With the L.R. Baggs Anthem System
The SJ-200 Standard Rosewood features the L.R. Baggs Anthem pickup system, which provides a natural acoustic tone when amplified. With an undersaddle transducer and soundhole microphone, the Anthem system captures the guitar��s complete voice in exquisite detail.
