The Gibson Elvis SJ-200 acoustic guitar at a glance:

With the Gibson Elvis SJ-200, the traditional manufacturer from Bozeman in Montana dedicates a very special acoustic guitar in super jumbo format to none other than the "King of Rock and Roll", which is based on the legendary flat-top model that Elvis used in the mid-1960s for his recordings at RCA Studio B in Nashville. The extensive instrument produces an authentic sound so that evergreens like "Heartbreak Hotel", or "Blue Suede Shoes" can be performed faithfully and in style. The solid Sitka spruce top and the solid maple body create an authentic rock-and-roll sound, which can also be amplified thanks to a high-quality L. R. Baggs pickup system. A shockproof hardshell case is included for safe transport.

King or the Flat-Tops: the Super Jumbo

With the Super Jumbo, Gibson presents a guitar that has taken the stages by storm since 1938. In addition to Elvis Presley, other music legends such as Bob Dylan, Emmylou Harris and many more also reach for this legendary flat-top acoustic guitar with its characteristically bulbous body shape. The large sound box gives the sound a tremendous assertiveness that can be heard at its best in any environment and allows for both excellent vocal accompaniment and fat solo playing.

Sitka spruce and maple are among the most popular tonewoods in guitar making.

The Scalloped-X bracing and all-massive construction also contribute to a high-volume sound, as deeper planed top bracing and solid tonewoods significantly improve the vibration response. To that end, the maple body delivers a distinct high-mid range and long sustain, while the classic Sitka spruce top contributes bright, clear tones that evolve sonically to perfection over time.

Grippy maple neck

For the neck construction of the Gibson Elvis SJ-200, the traditional US manufacturer also relies on maple, which is highly popular for this demanding guitar part due to its high stability. With its 43.8 mm slim bone nut and an East Indian rosewood fingerboard, the neck fits perfectly in the hand and is extremely comfortable to play. Good orientation with a decorative character is also ensured by the beautiful MOP-graded crown inlays.

Stage-strong pickup system and robust hardware

For the perfect stage performance, the guitar is equipped with the proven L. R. Baggs VTC pickup system, which is discreetly mounted in the sound hole and offers an extremely natural sound with impressive dynamics. At the same time, the control panel features a Volume and Tone knob, allowing for optimal sound adjustment to the surrounding conditions. Meanwhile, gold-plated Grover keystone machine heads ensure high-tuning stability.

Impressive design

The absolute star quality of Gibson Elvis SJ-200 is also due to its stunning design. Its nitrocellulose ebony finish not only allows the resonance to unfold freely but also develops a unique, highly attractive patina over the years. The visual highlights here, however, are undoubtedly the distinctive MOP-graded crown inlays, the iconic Moustache bridge and the lovingly designed tortoise pickguard with playful floral ornaments. The masterpiece of guitar craftsmanship is rounded off by the black and white trussrod cover on which the name of the style icon is engraved.
