This faithful reissue of Gibson's circa 1948 SJ-200N is finished in Antique Natural high gloss nitro lacquer, boasting a solid X-braced Sitka spruce top, paired with highly-figured bookmatched flame maple back and rims. Benefitting from the maintenance due its vintage, this Gibson features a professional neck reset and carved bone saddle.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe model described by Gibson as \"King of the Flat-tops\" is truly an impressive instrument both visually and sonically, and few acoustic instruments can match the sheer projection and power of a J-200. With a lower bout that's 17\" in width, and a body depth of over 4 1\/2\", the tone of this particular Gibson Jumbo is extremely bold, full and even-sounding, with equal presence and power afforded each string. The maple back and rims ensure a strong note attack and treble detail, and the instrument offers a warm, relaxed growl emblematic of a soundboard that's had the opportunity to open up over a number of decades. Weighing 4lbs 10oz, this SJ-200 has been professionally setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike's Guitar Bar with bronze 12-53 strings and easy-playing action.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nNeck Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Wood: Maple (2pc, walnut stinger)\u003cbr\u003e\n-Shape: Round C, measuring .865\" deep at 1st fret, .935\" at 9th\u003cbr\u003e\n-Fretboard: Rosewood (dark cut), crown mother of pearl inlays\u003cbr\u003e\n-Frets: Slender, faint wear beneath the plain strings on frets 1-5\u003cbr\u003e\n-Scale Length: 25 1\/2\"\u003cbr\u003e\n-Nut: 1.725\", bone\u003cbr\u003e\n-Tuners: Gibson Deluxe double-line, keystone buttons\u003cbr\u003e\n-Serialization: Eight-digit stamp dates to ‘98\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBody specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Wood: Spruce, Flame Maple\u003cbr\u003e\n-Bracing: X (scalloped)\u003cbr\u003e\n-Bridge: Rosewood open mustache, bone saddle\u003cbr\u003e\n-Pickguard: Tortoise, floral design\u003cbr\u003e\n-Label: Orange oval, serialized, Bozeman, MT\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Antique Natural gloss nitro lacquer exhibits broad checking, with just a few small dings on top and back at the lower bout and a few faint scratches on the rims.
