Gibson / 1940 SJ-100
"The decorations are understated, but the sound is incredibly powerful."
The SJ-100 was produced for only three years, from 1931 to 1941.
While the body size is the same as the SJ-200, it was released as a product with more restrained and understated decorations.

The script logo, dot position markers, firestripe pickguard, and understated openwork mustache bridge are probably its most distinctive features.



This item is an original SJ-100 produced in 1940.
It features an Adirondack spruce body combined with mahogany, and a beautiful curly maple neck with a stunning grain.
While the decorations are understated, you'll experience a powerful sound that's crisp and clear, yet with a strong, impactful bass.

The bridge, bridge plate, and bridge pins have been replaced, and the body has been re-lacquered, but the weather checking throughout the guitar gives a sense of having been used in various performances for over 80 years.
Experience the true sound for yourself.
