Gibson / SJ200 Pre-War Western Classic Sunburst / 2007 / Guitar

During the mid-1930s, Ray Whitley approached Gibson to build him a custom acoustic. The result was the first Gibson J-200 in 1937, which Ray Whitley used exclusively for many years. This Gibson Custom Western Classic J200 is a painstaking recreation of that celebrated guitar. Means, in contrary with other J200 it features the period Correct Gibson Script Logo, historic flowerpot pearl logo inlay, gold Waverly tuners, master grade AAA sitka spruce top, multiple bound pickguard modelled after the original 1937 pickguard, ebony Moustache bridge with pearl block inlay, as well on the fretboard, and the beautiful nitrocellulose 1930s sunburst finish.  The SJ200 Western Classic is pretty rare, the jumbo model body ensures a deep sound ability to project this far. It is in very good condition, it has playwear on the top as well as small dings here and there but nothing that dominantly catches the eye. There are some marks in the lacquer on the headstock, and the back has some bucklerash like signs of use. The maple used on the neck is incredibly good looking, the lacquer has sunk a bit throughout which results into a pleasant and loud sound. Comes with its original luxurious 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.
