Jumbo 200, nicknamed "King of Flat Top".
The Super Jumbo was born in 1937. The Super Jumbo was born in 1937, when cowboy star Ray Whitley and Gibson's Guy Hart met at the Madison Square Garden Rodeo, and Ray suggested that they build a guitar with an ultra-funky, ultra-country design, Later, it was used by famous country singers such as Gene Autry, Tex Ritter, and Jimmy Wakely, and quickly became a popular model in the Gibson flat-top world. In 1939, the SJ-200 was officially named the "Super Jumbo 200" due to its $200 list price at the time, and about 100 were produced until 1942.
After the war, it was re-released as the "J-200" in 1946. One of the main features is that the prewar model had rosewood sides and back, while the postwar model has maple sides and back. (Only two maple side & back models were produced by custom order before the war.) In '48, natural color was introduced, the peg head was single-layer cell binding, the body thickness was increased from 4 1/2" to 4 2/3" after '49, 4 7/8" in '52, and 4 7/8" in the mid-60s. In the mid-'60s, the body thickness became 5 inches.
It was used not only by country artists but also by legendary artists such as Elvis Presley and Keith Richards, and is still popular as Gibson's high-end model.
The J-160E was released in 1954 as an acoustico following the CF-100E.
It is so famous that John Lennon used it for many years, and it was originally produced for country and western music. The instrument is a historical gem that successfully combines live sound and electric tone.
Made in '62, this guitar offers the originality of the tune "O" matic, which is different from the slot saddle. Perhaps due to its body size, the J-200 is often thought to have a dynamic sound, but its content is surprisingly delicate and suitable for arpeggios. The tone is solid and clear like maple, so each note has presence. The vintage nuance, coupled with the withered sound, makes this a gem with an exquisite sound. Strongly recommended, in good condition.
