The Gibson Gibson 1957 SJ-200 AN at a glance:

With the new Gibson 1957 SJ-200 AN, the American traditional manufacturer expands its Custom Shop Historic collection and the largest flat-top Western guitar in the company's history, which is modelled on the original from the 1950s in a detailed construction. Famous for its loud and deep sound, the guitar is still used by numerous artists worldwide for powerful strumming and in the singer-songwriter genre. Due to a thermo treatment of the wood, the fully solid guitar with Sitka spruce top and flamed maple body sounds as authentic as an instrument already played for years and takes the player back to the good old days. A custom-fit case and a Gibson accessory kit are included.

A Sitka spruce top provides clear and powerful trebles

Sitka spruce wood is one of the most popular materials in guitar making due to its fine texture and exceptionally clear sound development, producing very set and clear treble frequencies that are capable of expressing every single note in a very differentiated and clean way. Thanks to a thermo treatment of the wood, the Gibson 1957 SJ-200 AN gains a very fast response, which is further enhanced by a Scalloped-X bracing and a high-quality nitro finish. Easily recognizable by its lightly flamed and uniform tight grain, the North American spruce wood also leaves a very good impression visually and with its light appearance perfectly matches the other woods used. The large pickguard with floral ornaments and the bridge in elaborate moustache shape with integrated Inlays form another highlight, of the flat-top classic and give the top a noble and timeless look, which makes the instrument so incredibly popular.

Back and sides made of finest curly maple.

Due to the huge super-jumbo build, the guitar produces very powerful bass frequencies that colour the overall tone warm and rich, making the instrument perfect for vocal accompaniment and strumming. The body's strikingly grained maple wood imbues the entire sound with a mellow note that very subtly enriches and rounds out the balance of the clear midrange frequencies. Strong flames shimmer lighter or darker depending on the angle of view, forming the even bars in the grain that give this stunning wood its name and give the instrument a unique appearance. Cream-coloured bindings create a smooth transition between the lighter woods of the entire body, delineating the individual components from one another with faint lines and thus emphasizing the exciting and even structure of the grain. The unfolded back of the guitar is separated with a fine backstripe that clarifies the symmetry of the two back parts and runs straight through to the headstock.

A round and grippy neck for finger acrobatics.

A round maple neck for maximum playing comfort.

Despite a long scale length of 647.7 mm, the Gibson 1957 SJ-200 AN guitar is very easy and accommodating to play in all 20 frets. The reason for this is a two-piece maple neck with a round profile, which allows a comfortable grip even in the higher frets and allows the player to elicit a clean tone from the instrument with little effort. The noble rosewood fingerboard is decorated with Mother-of-Pearl inlays, which with their fancy crown design bring the value of the material to the fore and prove that the craftsmanship of the manufacturer is not without reason known worldwide. The large headstock features the company logo and a fine inlay, which, in conjunction with the bell-shaped trussrod cover, provide a colourful contrast to the black base. Typical for the old Super Jumbo models, the guitar is equipped with tuning stable Gotoh keystone tuners, which fully embody the spirit of the 1950s.
