The Epiphone 1957 SJ-200 Reissue is a meticulous recreation of one of the most iconic jumbos in guitar history, featuring an all-solid wood construction and vintage-inspired details rarely found in this price range!

The Gibson SJ-200 was introduced in 1937 and quickly earned the nickname “the King of the Flat-Tops,” a title it owes to its imposing size, exceptional projection, and unmistakable stage presence. The model was embraced by a wide range of artists, from country and folk singers to rock legends, and vintage examples are highly sought after by collectors.

Epiphone has brought this model back to life through a collaboration with Gibson Custom, resulting in the 1957 SJ-200 Reissue: an Inspired by Gibson Custom recreation for today’s guitarist.

The guitar is built around a thermally aged Sitka spruce top with scalloped X-bracing, combined with solid figured maple back and sides, exactly the tonewood combination that gives the SJ-200 its signature bright and powerful sound. Also practical is the built-in L.R. Baggs Element Bronze VTC pickup, allowing the guitar to go straight to the stage with ease. Comes with a case.
