THE KING OF THE FLAT-TOPS

The legacy of Gibson’s “King of the Flat-Tops” lives on in the SJ-200™ Standard. From its inaugural appearance in 1937, Gibson’s SJ-200 set an unmatched standard. The SJ-200 continues the legacy of the world’s most famous acoustic guitar and is certainly one of the most popular. The body features gorgeous flame maple and is finished in gloss nitrocellulose lacquer. The SJ-200 comes equipped with gold Grover® Rotomatic® tuners, a TUSQ® nut, saddle, and bridge pins, and it is stage and studio-ready with an internal L.R. Baggs™ Anthem mic/pickup system.
