Gibson SJ-200 Studio Acoustic-Electric Guitar Antique Natural

Gibson Acoustic's master luthiers have recreated a legend.




Gibson’s J-200 Studio proudly maintains the
tradition and excellence of Gibson Acoustic’s Super Jumbo line, offering
a remarkable combination of features that deliver all the sweet tone,
clarity and presence expected from a Super Jumbo. The simple elegance of
the J-200 Studio is evident in every detail, including its premium
Sitka spruce top and attractive maple back and sides, releasing a rich,
full, and balanced high end and grand projection.


Nickel Grover Rotomatic Tuners
Grover’s
original Rotomatic tuners are an engineering marvel, with style and
performance exactly suited for the J-200 Studio. With a gear ratio of
14:1, the Rotomatics deliver precision tuning in a durable housing that
provides maximum protection for the gear and string post. All moving
parts are cut for exact meshing, eliminating the possibility of
slippage. A countersunk tension screw lets players regulate the tuning
tension to any degree. A special lubricant inside the gear box provides
smooth and accurate tuning stability.


Crown Peghead Logo
Gibson
put the first crown peghead logo on an ES-300 back in 1940, and it has
graced the headstocks of many legendary Gibson guitars ever since,
including the J-200 Studio. Over the years, it has also been called a
“thistle” because of the group of flowering plants with the sharp
prickles, though Gibson has preferred to call it a “crown.”


Pickguard
The
pickguard for the J-200 Studio is Gibson’s standard plain tortoise
Super Jumbo shape, enhanced with an engraved cream-colored border. As
with all of Gibson Acoustic’s pickguards, the coloring, inlay, and
binding are all done by hand.


Rosette
A
rosette is the beautiful, hand-crafted circle around the soundhole, and
can be one of the most ornamental elements of any acoustic guitar. It is
also one of the most subtle and complicated woodworking decorations on
any acoustic guitar. The rosette on the J-200 Studio is a double-ring
rosette, with the main ring consisting of seven-ply binding, and the
second ring three-ply binding, adding a stylish, understated elegance to
the J-200 Studio.


Rosewood Fingerboard with Rolled Edges and Graduated Crown Inlay
The
fingerboard of Gibson’s J-200 Studio is constructed from the highest
grade rosewood on earth, which is personally inspected and qualified by
Gibson’s team of skilled experts before it enters the Gibson factories.
The resilience of this durable wood makes the fingerboard extremely
balanced and stable, and gives each chord and note unparalleled clarity
and bite. The J-200 Studio’s graduated crown inlays are made of genuine
mother of pearl, and are inserted into the fingerboard using a process
that eliminates gaps and doesn’t require the use of fillers. The
fingerboard also sports a rolled edge—instead of the usual right angle
where the fingerboard surface meets the neck, Gibson Acoustic’s rolled
edge is slightly beveled for an extremely smooth and comfortable feel,
enhancing the playability of the J-200 Studio.


Body Tonewoods (back, sides and top)
The
top of the J-200 Studio is made from AA-grade Sitka spruce, while plain
maple is used for the back and sides, giving the all the deep, rich
tone, clarity and presence expected from a Gibson Super Jumbo. Selecting
the right wood, and the formula to dry it out, are two of the most
central procedures to Gibson’s guitar-building process. Beginning with
its first catalog in 1903, Gibson has assured its customers that every
guitar would be built using woods with “the most durable, elastic, and
sonorous qualities,” and today’s guitars from Gibson Acoustic are no
different.


Fishman Ellipse Aura Electronics Package
Gibson’s
J-200 Studio comes equipped with a built-in Fishman Ellipse Aura
electronics package, which combines Fishman’s most sophisticated onboard
preamp design with the power of the popular Aura Acoustic Imaging
Technology. The result is acoustic sound that is exceptionally accurate
and true to life. Already loaded onto the system are four images that
best match the instrument’s natural tonal characteristics. You can make
adjustments to any of them using the system’s Pickup/Image Blend or
Volume controls, or use the switchable Natural I and Natural II low
frequencies for tone shaping. You can also control feedback with the
Phase switch and automatic Anti-Feedback device control. The pickup's
ergonomic soundhole-mounted design puts slider controls at your
fingertips so you can maintain a natural playing position at all times.
The Fishman Ellipse Aura is used by such noted musicians as Brad
Paisley, Pete Townshend and Travis Tritt.


Bracing
Every
acoustic guitar made by Gibson features hand-scalloped, radiused top
bracing inside the body, a feature normally found only in limited run,
hand-made guitars. By scalloping each brace by hand, the natural sound
of the acoustic is focused more toward the center of the body, enhancing
the instrument’s sound projection. The lightweight bracing pattern
inside the J-200 Studio —the same pattern used in Gibson’s first Super
Jumbo in 1937—is constructed to support and strengthen a very large
surface, thus allowing the top more freedom of movement to vibrate and
project sound. The placement of the braces inside the J-200 Studio also
creates powerful, deep lows with full frequency range, producing the
incredibly balanced, huge sound Gibson’s Super Jumbos are so noted for.
