The amazing SJ-200 made even more luxurious.

Lustrous abalone rosette, bound ebony fingerboard with abalone crown inlays, stunning Indian rosewood back and sides, and gold Grover Imperial tuners elevate this Gibson SJ-300 Acoustic Electric Guitar into a league of its own. Astoundingly bold and pure tone comes from the solid AAA Premium Sitka spruce top. Ebony moustache bridge with abalone inlays, 6-ply top binding, 4-ply back binding, and bound headstock lend even more stage presence. Mahogany neck and pickup system with active preamp.
