Gibson SJ-200 M2M Quilted Maple/Thermally Aged Adirondack Tri Burst

A superlative Gibson SJ-200! This SJ-200 was built to our specifications in the Custom Shop in Bozeman, Montana. And, as always, we are more than thrilled with the final result. Based on the traditional Jumbo model, we added a number of special woods and features. For the top, we chose thermally treated Adirondack spruce, which gives the guitar plenty of power, dynamics, and, thanks to the heat treatment, a well-played tonal character. For a truly unique look, we opted for highly figured AAA quilted maple back and sides. The body's beautiful grain is further emphasized by the so-called "tri-burst" finish. To add a unique visual touch, all inlays are made of blue-green abalone. The soundhole rosette and top purfling are also elaborately decorated with abalone. Finally, all tonal components, such as the neck joint and top bracing, are glued with "hot hide glue." This traditional glue hardens to a crystalline state and "interlocks" the woods for perfect vibration transmission!

The result is a unique, premium-class Gibson SJ-200! Its sound delivers plenty of power, a solid bass, and brilliant highs. Visually, it is uniquely designed and features the highest-quality tonewoods. The AAA Quilted Maple, in particular, captivates with its three-dimensional look! A truly special instrument from Gibson for players, collectors, and connoisseurs.
