The King of the Flat-Tops, Now with Baggs HiFi DNA
The Gibson SJ-200 is the world’s most famous acoustic guitar and earned its designation as the “King of the Flat-Tops.” Since its release in 1937, its wide use by American artists has made the Super Jumbo one of the most widely played acoustic guitars of our time. The SJ-200 Original carries forward this legendary legacy with its unmistakable shape, elegant appearance, powerful voice, and iconic Gibson appointments.
The SJ-200 Original features a solid Sitka spruce top paired with exquisite flame maple back and sides, delivering the bold projection, clarity, and tonal definition that have made the SJ-200 a favorite for generations. Traditional hand-scalloped X-bracing enhances the guitar’s natural resonance and dynamic response, allowing the large Super Jumbo body to deliver a powerful and balanced acoustic voice.
The two-piece maple neck features a comfortable Rounded profile and is joined to the body with a compound dovetail neck-to-body joint. The rosewood fingerboard features 20 standard frets and distinctive mother-of-pearl graduated crown inlays. A bone nut and saddle provide a solid foundation for the SJ-200’s powerful acoustic voice, while the 25.5" scale length contributes to its impressive projection and string response.
The SJ-200 Original features some of the most recognizable appointments in the Gibson acoustic lineup, including the carved four-bar Moustache bridge, engraved tortoise pickguard, mother-of-pearl crown fingerboard and headstock inlays, and Gotoh® Keystone tuners with gold plating. Together, these details make the SJ-200 as visually distinctive as it is sonically commanding.
The SJ-200 Original is now fitted with the all-new Gibson-exclusive Baggs HiFi DNA pickup system. This active design utilizes two lightweight sensors mounted to the internal bridge plate, each paired with its own optimized preamp. The result is a natural, full-bodied amplified tone that faithfully represents the SJ-200’s inherent character without altering its unplugged voice.
The Baggs HiFi DNA system offers impressive gain-before-feedback compared to an under-saddle pickup. Discreet soundhole-mounted controls allow quick, intuitive adjustments on the fly while remaining virtually unseen by the audience. With its iconic Super Jumbo body, unmistakable Gibson appointments, powerful acoustic voice, new Baggs HiFi DNA electronics, and included hardshell case, the SJ-200 Original is ready for both stage and studio use from the moment it’s picked up.
