Stunning Limited Edition Custom Shop SJ-200 built to mark a very special occasion - 100 years of Gibson Flat-Tops.  1 of only 100 made and in case-queen/unplayed condition.

 

Even for one of the most prestigious guitar brands in history, 100 years of success is a long time. As part of this celebration, this model is part of a commemorative run, handmade in Bozeman, Montana. This J-200 honours what makes the original model so legendary, whilst adding enough flare and charm to make it a rare stand-out piece for collectors and players alike. Used by legendary players such as Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Emmylou Harris, Elvis, Jimmy Page and many more.

 

This Anniversary addition takes a sublime two-piece AA Figured Maple back and sides and pairs it with a Bear Claw Sitka Spruce top. This retains the unmistakeable SJ-200 tone but gives it a unique visual perspective, as each piece of Bear Claw has its own grain pattern and the Figured Maple further amps up the level of prestige. To help this stand out even further, the top is framed beautifully with multi-ply binding which is accentuated with Abalone, as well as an Abalone soundhole rosette. This classy upgrade is taken to the max with the Cremona Burst gloss nitro finish, which is reminiscent of a golden-hued Sunburst, it really brings out the beauty of the grain and is the perfect finish for this celebratory model.

 

An incredible two-piece Flamed Maple neck with a comfortable Rounded neck shape is topped with a bound Rosewood fretboard, which carries 20 frets with classic Mother of Pearl graduated crown inlays. A singly-ply bound headstock is adorned with a vintage Mother of Pearl 'The Gibson' logo, which is another tasteful nod to its historical significance. Gold-plated Grover tuners not only keep the tuning stable but match the colour of the Cremona Burst superbly.

 

The SJ-200 tortoiseshell pickguard features the classic design which extends the Abalone theme to the detailing on the vines and flower art styling. A Rosewood two-bar moustache bridge keeps things prestigious with two Mother of Pearl bar inlays which hold a Bone saddle and TUSQ bridge pins. These are matched with a Bone nut at the other end which is not only a nod to the early flat-top designs but retains optimum durability as well as providing supreme, vintage Gibson tone.

 

Discreetly installed with a LR Baggs VTC pickup system, this includes a piezo under saddle element and active preamp, easily adjustable to your tastes via the controls tucked away in the soundhole. It's a stage-ready guitar which is perfect for the modern player, but retains its majestic vintage-inspired aesthetics.

 

It comes complete with its Gibson Custom hardcase with certificate. These sold out immediately upon release, so don't miss this rare chance to own a piece of Gibson history!
