This 1953 Gibson SJ-200 in Sunburst is a classic vintage jumbo with the big, powerful voice and rich, resonant tone these early SJ-200s are known for. The guitar is in good condition with light dings and scratches throughout, consistent with its age and history. Repairs include three cleats, a repaired top crack, a replaced bridge plate, and a new saddle. Includes the original hard-shell case. A fantastic vintage Gibson with exceptional character, feel, and the unmistakable depth, warmth, and projection of a seasoned SJ-200.
