About this listing
Beautiful and relatively uncommon Gibson L-200 Emmylou Harris Signature model in excellent condition, complete with its original Gibson hardshell case and the distinctive Gibson Bozeman soundhole label signed by Emmylou Harris.The L-200 takes many of the classic appointments of Gibson's SJ-200 and puts them into a more compact, comfortable body. Comparable L-200 examples describe the model as essentially a scaled-down SJ-200, with a roughly 15" lower bout while retaining the maple/spruce construction and ornate Super Jumbo styling.This guitar features a solid Sitka spruce top, highly figured/flamed maple back and sides, flamed maple neck, and bound rosewood fingerboard with graduated mother-of-pearl crown inlays. The body is finished in Gibson's beautiful Antique Natural nitrocellulose finish, which really highlights the figuring of the maple.It has the classic L-200/J-200 appointments: moustache-style rosewood bridge with pearl inlays, ornate engraved floral pickguard with mother-of-pearl dots, multi-ply body binding, Gibson pearl headstock logo and crest, and gold vintage-style tuners with pearloid buttons. These features are consistent with other later-production L-200 Emmylou Harris examples.Electronics upgradeThe electronics have been upgraded to an L.R. Baggs iMix active pickup system. This is not the original factory pickup system. The iMix combines two pickup sources and provides onboard control, making the guitar very versatile for amplified/live use while keeping the controls discreet.ConditionThe guitar is in excellent condition, especially for a 2012 instrument. The natural finish and highly figured maple present beautifully, and the ornate original appointments remain intact.Please review the photos carefully, as they form part of the condition description. I'm happy to provide additional detailed photos if needed.SpecificationsModel: Gibson L-200 Emmylou Harris SignatureYear: 2012Made in: Bozeman, Montana, USAFinish: Antique Natural gloss nitrocelluloseTop: Solid Sitka spruceBack & Sides: Highly figured/flamed mapleNeck: Flamed maple with center stringerNeck profile: Slender CFingerboard: Rosewood, boundInlays: Graduated mother-of-pearl crownsScale length: 24.75"Nut width: 1 11/16"Bridge: Moustache-style rosewood with pearl inlaysPickguard: Ornate J-200-style floral pickguard with MOP accentsTuners: Gold vintage-style with pearloid buttonsElectronics: Upgraded L.R.
