Gibson / J-200 / 1957 / Natural / Guitar
Undoubtedly one of Gibson's most iconic, recognized acoustic guitars, the Jumbo flattop Gibson J-200 acoustic guitar is often known as "The King of Flattops." Enormous in both size and tone, the Gibson J-200 is most noticeable due to its various aesthetic oddities, from a mustache bridge to its pineapple-style inlays. Its fashionable looks and giant sound brought it to the attention of players like Pete Townshend and Elvis Presley. This a 1957 Gibson J-200 in Natural, serial# A25444. The body is flamed Maple and is STUNNING, with a Brazilian Rosewood fretboard. The guitar is in good, functioning condition. It has its scratches and wear from its age and being well-loved. There's a fissure that runs the side bout, but the guitar is structurally sound and just sings. She comes with a hardshell case.
