King of the Flat-tops
The Gibson SJ-200 is the world's most famous acoustic guitar, having earned the title "King of the Flat-Tops." Since its launch in 1937, widespread use by American artists has made the Super Jumbo model one of the most played acoustic guitars of our time. Key features of the new SJ-200 Original include the carved "Moustache" bridge with four transverse bars, an engraved tortoise-style pickguard, mother-of-pearl crown inlays on both the fretboard and headstock, and back and sides crafted from exquisite flamed maple. With its distinctive shape and elegant appearance, the SJ-200 is a true American original.
The SJ-200 Original now features the all-new, exclusive Baggs™ HiFi DNA™ pickup system from Gibson. This active system utilizes two lightweight sensors mounted to the underside of the bridge plate, each paired with its own optimized preamp. The result is a natural, full-bodied amplified sound that faithfully reproduces the guitar's inherent character without altering its acoustic tone. The Baggs HiFi DNA system offers feedback resistance comparable to that of an under-saddle pickup. Discreet volume and tone controls are mounted inside the soundhole, allowing for quick, intuitive adjustments while playing, all while remaining virtually invisible to the audience. With its refined electronics and included hardshell case, the SJ-200 Original is ready for both stage and studio the moment you pick it up.
