The Gibson SJ-200?? is widely recognized as the world's most famous acoustic guitar, earning its long-standing reputation as the King of the Flat-Tops. While maple has become the tonewood most commonly associated with the model, the earliest SJ-200 examples featured rosewood back and sides. Gibson is proud to reintroduce that historic tonewood combination with the SJ-200 Standard Rosewood.

Compared to the maple-bodied SJ-200 Standard, the rosewood body construction delivers enhanced bass response, while the Sitka spruce top and Super Jumbo dimensions maintain the volume, clarity, and projection players expect from the model. Multi-ply binding accents the top and back, and a gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish showcases the instrument's timeless design.The mahogany neck features Gibson's comfortable Rounded profile and is paired with a bound Indian rosewood fretboard adorned with 20 standard frets, a 12-inch radius, and mother-of-pearl graduated crown inlays.
