Gibson / J200 Sunburst / 1956 / Guitar

The J200 from Gibson is the undisputed King of the Flattops, and has undergone many changes since its introduction in 1938. In 1947 the material of the back and sides was changed to maple, and in 1955 the name was shortened from 'SJ200' to 'J200' and the maple back and sides were laminated. The solid Sitka spruce top is accompanied by a flamed maple back and sides, and is decorated with a cream-colored binding and the signature engraved tortoise pickguard. The three-piece neck consists of two pieces of flamed maple with a piece of rosewood in between, and plays very comfortably. This is an ideal singer-songwriter guitar with great looks and a great jumbo sound. Thanks to the maple body, it has a lot of clarity and sharpness in the treble. The large size also gives it a lot of volume, making it perfect for strumming. In terms of appearance, this J200 from 1956 is one of the most beautiful vintage Gibsons that we have welcomed to The Fellowship of Acoustics. The Cherry Sunburst has aged beautifully over time, giving the guitar an unprecedented charm that cannot be imitated by modern replicas. The guitar has undergone a refret, and a small spot in the lacquer has been touched up near the endpin. The buttons on the tuners have also been replaced, but the original ones are included. The guitar is otherwise very clean and sounds and plays fantastic. The guitar is in excellent condition and comes with TFOA passport in a hardshell case.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
