Classic Jumbo Sound with the SJ-200

Short Introduction:

Beautifully made, quite lightweight, chords resonate clearly and loud, need time for your ears to settle! But not long,good for fingerpicking,great gibson tone,even sound all over fretboard, great guitar.

The guitar was beautifully crafted the anthem pickup was defective. (very sensitive to static electricity. any moment or even touching the top or shoulders would result in static discharges.)

All the stories you hear about these guitars are not hype, they are incredible. Powerful, clear, and extremely resonant. Factory setup up is perfect, very easy to play, anywhere on the neck. I do a lot of alternate tuning, solo work, the action is very consistent, anywhere on the fret board, Whether you are Finger picking, or strumming flat pick style, this guitar does it all. It's really is like a piano that fits on your lap with 6 strings. The moment you being play it, and it literally comes to life on your lap.I have two very nice Taylors, but this SJ200 eclipses them in a heartbeat.The anthem pickup (dual system, condenser mike and saddle element) offers a very natural amplified tone. While these do not seem to have the output a Fishman (for example) pickup does, the tone is 10x improved, there's no piezo "quack" that you need to try and blend out of the sound. Once you find the sweet spot, the pickup reproduces, very accurately the primary tone of the instrument. Very nice!The standard issue case is tight fitting, and the top, hinges and hasps were all aligned properly allowing the case to close and the hasps to lock smoothly.The Gibson SJ-200 is a class act from the get go. Despite the significant cost of these guitars, after living on it for about a week now, (I can't put it down for long).. for me, it was worth every dime.
