The Gibson SJ-200 EC Modern Classic acoustic guitar gives you the best of both worlds: time-tested, handcrafted construction from Gibson's finest, and a cutaway, pickup-equipped design that's ideal for today's performer. The SJ-200 EC features a Super Jumbo body style, with a premium solid Sitka spruce top, AAA flame maple back and sides, and a maple neck. You get incredible tone and astounding projection from this guitar (even with a cutaway)! Gibson also made a number of improvements to the action, fingerboard, hardware, and electronics, giving the SJ-200 EC Modern Classic even more playability! Gibson SJ-200 EC Modern Classic at a Glance:
Modern Classics, improved Delivering quality craftsmanship and classic style, Gibson guitars will always be of the best in the world. Yet, the same technological developments that constantly change and revolutionize the audio industry are also impacting the needs and wishes of modern musicians: Gibson knows this. With the release of the Modern Classic line, Gibson gives a nod to the modern guitarist - the guitarist who needs onboard electronics, cutaways to reach the uppermost frets, modified neck profiles, and setups that allow playability - no matter the style of playing. With these features in mind, Gibson redesigned the entire Modern Classics line to give us premium, handcrafted guitars that play easier, intonate better, sound great plugged in, and stay in tune even better than before. These guitars feature the latest design advancements, including radiused, or rolled fingerboard edges, that give you a fast, comfortable feel. And, with string height lower at the nut, these guitars will also play even easier and intonate better all the way up the neck. Final Gibson touches, including new soundhole labels, sturdy Grover tuners, and premium Fishman pickups, make it easy for you to take your favorite Gibson acoustic to the modern stage with confidence! Quality construction All Modern Classic guitars are handcrafted by Gibson in Bozeman, MT, from premium tonewoods and components. The SJ-200 EC is no exception, featuring a premium-quality solid Sitka spruce top, AAA flame maple back and sides, and maple neck with a comfy round profile. In addition to improvements in playability, electronics, and hardware (which apply to all new Modern Classic guitars), there are also plenty of eye-catching appointments on the SJ-200 EC. The rosewood "moustache" bridge features four mother-of-pearl bar inlays, while MOP crowns adorn the Madagascar rosewood fingerboard, which has multi-ply binding. 6-ply top and 4-ply back binding are also included. Great unplugged or onstage The SJ-200 EC produces a well-balanced acoustic tone that practically leaps out of the guitar, and it's not afraid to push some serious air when strummed hard. The combination of its Super Jumbo body and comfortable cutaway allows for a full sound while giving you access to the upper frets. Plug this guitar in and you still get that pure, balanced tone, at any volume you want. It's an incredible all-around instrument! 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. Gibson SJ-200 EC Modern Classic Acoustic Guitar Features:
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! |
