Gibson / M2M TFOA Limited SJ200 Slope Shoulder Edition Faded Vintage Sunburst #21404051 / Guitar

The term 'King of the Flattops' doesn't just fall from the sky, and it's one I can stand behind to be honest. There's something about the tone of that guitar that's so unique. It has a natural compression, not making it overbearingly loud for such a big body but balancing the sound in a perfect way. Fingerpicking, strumming, flat picking, it all works on an SJ200. For me though, the guitar shines most when used to accompany vocals. Be that in a singer-songwriter setting, a duo setting or a full band performance. The idea of this guitar is to have the exact specifications of that famous SJ200, but transferring them to the smaller, more popular Gibson Slope Shoulder body-shape. This body shape is made famous of course by none-other than the J45, the original guitarists workhorse. Combining this body shape with the moustache bridge reminds us most of the rare J55, of which only 400 pieces were ever made between '39 and '42. The sound of this 'TFOA Limited' fantastically mimics the sound of an SJ200, but adds the subtle dynamic capabilities that the J45-style Slope Shoulder body offers. Especially having a body-shape of this size equipped with Maple back & sides makes a huge difference, offering a lot more punch and round mid-ranges compared to a Mahogany-bodied guitar. Although I had to get used to its tone (as well as its looks!) at first, I can safely say this is my absolute favourite Gibson Custom in our store right now. If you're looking for a Gibson Acoustic that combines the best of both their worlds, this is a very unique opportunity. We originally planned on receiving two, but convinced Gibson to (please!) make us one extra, three in total. This is the very first of these three and we couldn't be prouder. What started out as a random idea, ended up on the drawing board and is now a stunning, beautiful and great-sounding instrument. Interested in more information, pictures or an extra demo? Feel free to contact us, we're more than happy to chat about this guitar a little longer! Played by Tom Punt | Demo Gear: Ear Trumpet Labs Evelyn Stereo Microphone

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.
