Gibson J-200-N (1967) Flame maple & Sitka spruce, Gibson case,

1967 Gibson J-200N, serial number #849346. The big Gibson guitars were always considered cool instruments and for those who play them know how inspiring their tone can be. The big body creates a warm and deep and bit growling response often referred to as 'weich und warm' by our German customers, meaning a guitar with a certain vintage magic that is not easily caught in words but really gets to you and brings out a happy feeling, with that distinctive growl that is really overwhelming and makes you want to play the bass strings over and over. The J-200 features a big body and shows fancy appointments that make her stand out on any stage. The older they get the better they sound, especially maple-spruce combined guitars often need lots of time to mature, but when they do they are unbeatable. The typical character of a J-200 makes them somehow perfect for vocal support.

The guitar features, all original finish but the top seen overspray, the top and back are crack free, but there is a repair to the back centre inlay against the heal area and there is some local retouche, my guess is a part of the binding is replaced in that area also. A repaired end-pin crack is sort of perfectly repaired and the 3 holes from a tailpiece that was on the guitar at one point in her life are filled, now i ask myself who wants a tailpiece on a J200??! Also the frets have been replaced at one point. The guitar undergone a neck reset in the past. The playability is excellent with low action, 2.5mm on the 12th and lots of saddle left to lower further, recently the saddle is replaced for a bone saddle.

There is relatively very little wear to the guitar and overall this guitar is very good condition and comes with superb playability. Features include a moustache bridge with pearl inlay, flame maple neck with bound rosewood fingerboard and fancy inlays, engraved pickguard, multi-layered bindings, gold Grover Rotomatic tuners. This guitar is in very good condition, The guitar features 645mm (25.4”) scale length and 43mm (1 11/16”) nut width, It's sounds just how you like a J-200 to sound..big and with that whomp, woody and vintage! With a later Gibson case.
