Derringers Music are pleased to bring you the Gibson Acoustic SJ-200 Standard Maple Acoustic-Electric Guitar, with Wine Red finish.
A mainstay instrument for many of music history's beloved players since 1937, the celebrated tones of the Gibson Acoustic SJ-200 Standard Maple Acoustic Guitar are guaranteed to stimulate any live performance or studio session.
This highly decorated "King of the Flat-tops" features a loud, clear voice for strumming and delicate fingerpicking, thanks to its AAA solid Sitka spruce top and flame maple back and sides. Its rock-solid maple neck capped with smooth-as-glass rosewood translates vibrations beautifully to the body, with enough durability to last for generations of consistent use. LR Baggs Anthem electronics round out this bona fide workhorse, bringing the SJ-200 Standard's sonic richness to the stage or studio with incredible results.
Exquisitely crafted tonewoods deliver a full-bodied voice
Gibson's SJ-200 Standard is part of the manufacturer's storied line of Super Jumbo acoustic guitars, all of which feature an uncompromising commitment to the highest-quality tonewoods available. At its core sits an AAA-grade Sitka spruce top to deliver the SJ-200 Standard's robust voice, with flame maple for the back and sides to cut cleanly through dense live mixes while minimizing feedback. High-grade rosewood — personally inspected and approved by Gibson's world-class luthiers — comprises the SJ-200 Standard's fingerboard, silky-smooth to the touch and supremely comfortable in all playing positions while imbuing exceptional clarity and character into your playing.
Abundant stunning ornamentations
One look is all it takes to understand the special care and consideration Gibson gave the SJ-200 Standard. Its 2-piece maple neck boasts beautiful Graduated Crown inlays, which were made of genuine mother-of-pearl and inserted into the fingerboard using a unique process that eliminates gaps without fillers. For added visual flair, this stunning work of playable art boasts a tortoise pickguard with flower and dot decor alongside an iconic Moustache bridge. With such stunning appointments and bold aesthetics, the SJ-200 Standard is clearly worthy of a "King".
LR Baggs electronics: exceptional amplified tone
The SJ-200 Standard comes stock with a feedback-busting, natural-sounding pickup: the LR Baggs Anthem. The Anthem's hybrid under-saddle and mic design amplify your playing in a clean, clear, and dynamic way. While many guitar mics can be too prone to feedback — or produce an equally as unwanted "boxy" sound when in use — the LR Baggs Anthem perfectly translates the detail, warmth, and personality of your instrument with results that are sure to turn the heads of acoustic purists everywhere. Take it from the Derringers Music crew: unplugged or direct, the SJ-200 Standard sings beautifully.
