Baggs Element Bronze VTC pickupGuitar case includedEpiphone 1957 SJ-200 Reissue Antique Natural at a glanceWith the Epiphone 1957 SJ-200 Reissue Antique Natural, the traditional manufacturer is bringing a legend back to the stage. True to detail and inspired by the legendary King or the Flat-Tops from 1937, this electro-acoustic jumbo western guitar is not only a visual statement, but also a sonic powerhouse. The fully solid construction ensures a powerful tone with impressive sustain. Thanks to a high-quality pickup system, it is also ideally equipped for stage and studio use. The classic jumbo design, combined with Epiphone's attention to detail and the official Inspired by Gibson seal, makes this model an authentic reissue with modern comfort. And to ensure it is accompanied safely and stylishly, a matching guitar case is already included in the scope of delivery.Solid JumboThe combination of a solid torrefied spruce top and solid maple back and sides delivers exactly the distinctive, brilliant tone you would expect from a jumbo western guitar. The torrefied (heat-dried) spruce lends the sound a wonderfully well-rehearsed tone that is otherwise only known from decades-old vintage instruments. The sound is brilliant with a quick response and finely nuanced articulation. The solid maple back and sides support the defined trebles and add a striking mid-range as well as a long Sustain. The sound experience is rounded off by the Scalloped X bracing, which gives the top more freedom of vibration and thus ensures an even livelier resonance and dynamic range.Ergonomic maple neckThe maple neck with a classic C-profile lies smoothly in the hand and offers just the right balance between substance and playability for fluid chord changes, expressive picking and long playing without fatigue. The fine rosewood fingerboard with its smooth surface ensures a pleasant playing feel and a precise response in every position. In addition, gold-plated Epiphone Deluxe tuners guarantee reliable tuning stability and give the guitar an extra dose of style. Another highlight for true tone purists is the compensated bone bridge inlay, which ensures precise intonation across the entire fretboard. It optimizes the sound transmission and perfectly rounds off the high-quality playing feel.Professional pickup systemThe L. R. Baggs Element Bronze VTC is the perfect solution for musicians who want an authentic sound. This high-quality pickup delivers a natural sound that reproduces the acoustic sound of the guitar with impressive clarity and warmth. Thanks to its control panel discreetly built into the sound hole, the classic appearance of the guitar is completely retained. At the same time, the intuitive control via volume and tone knobs allows the sound to be adjusted directly without interfering with the aesthetics of the instrument. The Element VTC system is renowned for its ability to faithfully reproduce the dynamics of the playing, responding immediately to the nuances of the playing technique and enhancing the natural sound of the guitar without distorting it.Antique Natural Finish with traditional elementsWith its sophisticated Antique Natural finish, it radiates timeless elegance and vintage character, making a clear visual statement. The iconic tortoise striking plate with artfully engraved floral ornaments also pays homage to the original design of the 1930s and underlines the craftsmanship and love of tradition. The appearance is complemented by the striking mother-of-pearl graduated crown inlays, which curve across the rosewood fingerboard. This makes the Epiphone SJ-200 Reissue a visual icon - stylish, distinctive and full of authenticity. A guitar that not only wants to be heard, but also seen.
