A Brand-new Vintage SJ-200!
The Gibson SJ-200 True Vintage acoustic guitar gives you the look and sound of the authentic Super Jumbo as it first appeared. Sporting a premium solid spruce top, solid flame maple back and sides, and a comfortable maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard, the SJ-200 True Vintage is a beautiful instrument that can really pump out some acoustic volume! Its 25-1/2" scale also makes this guitar a real player, and True Vintage features give this SJ-200 True Vintage the classic looks of a Gibson from the 1950s.

Gibson SJ-200 True Vintage Acoustic Guitar at a Glance:
  • Super Jumbo
  • Classic Gibson Craftsmanship
  • True Vintage
  • Quality construction

The Super Jumbo
Gibson's Super Jumbo guitars were originally built to cut through the loudest acoustic ensembles, allowing them to compete with the mandolins and banjos that were prevalent in "pre-amplified" times. It's still a thrill to hear the well-balanced sound of a Super Jumbo ring out loud and clear, the maple sides and spruce top pumping out a throaty tone that's equally great for hi-octane strumming and delicate fingerpicking. Everyone from rockers to country artists to blues greats choose these guitars for their incredible sound, projection, build quality, and, let's face it, stunning looks.

Classic Gibson craftsmanship
Gibson's reputation as a fine guitar builder dates back to the late 1800s. Handcrafted since day one by some of the most skilled luthiers around, Gibson acoustic guitars have inspired countless players around the world. When you pick up a Gibson acoustic, you know you're getting the finest tonewoods, quality hardware, and incredible attention to detail - these instruments are built to sound great and stand the test of time. After moving from Kalamazoo, MI, to Nashville, TN (where Gibson electric guitars continue to be made), Gibson finally settled their acoustic operation in Bozeman, MT, where they continue making some of the finest guitars on the planet by hand.

True Vintage
Gibson takes you back to the original! The luthiers of Gibson Acoustic in Montana have created replicas of their top historic models. These guitars have been added to satisfy the demands of the discriminating vintage guitar customer All True Vintage models feature historic orange labels, bone nut and saddle, historically accurate binding over fret ends, Madagascar rosewood components, a premium vintage style case, and select dark amber toner.

Quality construction
When Gibson brings you a True Vintage instrument, expect the best! The SJ-200 True Vintage boasts a premium solid Sitka spruce top, quality solid mahogany back and sides, a mahogany neck, and a fingerboard and bridge made of Madagascar rosewood. All these elements add up to a guitar that sounds great now, and will only improve over time. Instruments such as the True Vintage Hummingbird are great investments and reliable musical companions that will inspire you for years to come.

Gibson: Don't Mess with a Good Thing
Gibson guitars have been around for well over a century. When guitarists are looking for an outstanding combination of superb tone and playability along with great looks and gorgeous finishes, the choice for most of those 100 plus years has been Gibson. From their amazing collection of fine acoustics to the electric guitars that literally rewrote music history, Gibson guitars have been on almost every chart-topping album from artists like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Cream and Led Zeppelin. These "first call" instruments also cross an enormous array of diverse styles, from folk and country to blues and hard rock. With that resume, it's not surprising that so many of Gibson's best-selling instruments have changed little over the decades. Because there's just no sense in messing with a good thing!
