1995 Gibson J-200 Jumbo Guitar Vintage Sunburst, Figured Maple w/ Case
Up for sale, a 1995 Gibson J-200 jumbo in excellent 100% original condition, complete with the original Gibson Montana hardshell case. The 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 defined, full and balanced, with equal presence and articulate snap afforded each string. The maple back and rims ensure a strong note attack, punchy treble response, and smooth, relaxed growl emblematic of a soundboard that's had the opportunity to open up over a number of decades. Weighing 5lbs, this J-200 has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar with bronze 12-53 strings and easy-playing action.

The gloss on the neck profile is smooth and clean, with some checking along the central walnut stringer on the back of the headstock.
