Rosewood Returns to the King of the Flat-Tops
The Gibson SJ-200 is the world’s most famous acoustic guitar and well deserves its designation as the “King of the Flat-Tops.” Often made with maple back and sides, some of the earliest SJ-200 examples were instead made with rosewood bodies. The SJ-200 Standard Rosewood brings this historically significant tonewood combination back to one of Gibson’s most acclaimed and cherished acoustic guitars.
The SJ-200 Standard Rosewood features a solid Sitka spruce top paired with solid rosewood back and sides, delivering the bold projection and powerful response expected from a Super Jumbo while adding greater depth, fuller low end, and increased harmonic complexity. Traditional hand-scalloped X-bracing enhances the guitar’s natural resonance and dynamic response, allowing the rosewood body to deliver a rich, articulate voice with exceptional sustain and tonal depth.
The mahogany neck features a comfortable Rounded profile and is attached to the body with a compound dovetail neck-to-body joint using hot hide glue. The Indian rosewood fingerboard features 20 standard frets and distinctive mother-of-pearl graduated crown inlays. A TUSQ nut and saddle provide a solid foundation for the guitar’s powerful voice and contribute to its clear articulation and sustain.
The SJ-200 Standard Rosewood features the instantly recognizable two-bar Moustache bridge, crafted from rosewood and fitted with TUSQ bridge pins. Gold Grover Imperial tuners provide smooth, dependable tuning stability, while the iconic J-200 pickguard and mother-of-pearl Gibson logo and crown complete the unmistakable look of the King of the Flat-Tops.
The SJ-200 Standard Rosewood 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 while preserving the added depth, warmth, and harmonic complexity of its rosewood body.
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 powerful Super Jumbo voice, rosewood construction, iconic Gibson appointments, new Baggs HiFi DNA electronics, and included Gibson hardshell case, the SJ-200 Standard Rosewood is ready for both stage and studio use from the moment it’s picked up. It is also available in left-handed versions.
