My father was a collector of guitars and passed away. Rather than keep them in their cases, the time has come for them to go on to a new owner who will enjoy them. Many of his collection were barely used. I'll be adding additional guitars, so check for other ones from his collection.

This guitar is in near-excellent condition. It has a few small scuff marks (see photo) but otherwise, is in great shape. There is one string (6th) currently missing.

Includes: Guitar, Original Hard Case, and Case Key.

This is a stunning 2005 Gibson J-200 Artist, hand-built in Gibson’s legendary Bozeman, Montana acoustic shop and widely regarded as one of the finest modern-era iterations of the iconic “King of the Flat-Tops.”

Produced during a highly respected run of early-2000s Bozeman acoustics, this J-200 Artist features beautifully figured maple back and sides, a premium Sitka spruce top, and the ornate appointments that distinguish the Artist model from the standard SJ-200. The result is a guitar that delivers huge projection, shimmering clarity, and exceptional note definition, while retaining the warmth and depth that make great J-200s so inspiring to play.

Tonally, this example offers the classic J-200 voice: powerful low end, glassy highs, and a wide, piano-like dynamic range that excels at both solo performance and ensemble playing. The maple body provides outstanding articulation and focus, making it ideal for strumming, flatpicking, and studio work where clarity and separation matter.
