Overview

Since its launch in 1937, the Gibson SJ-200 has set the gold standard in the world of acoustic guitars, captivating the greatest artists in country, folk, and rock. Its rich tone, dynamic range, and unmatched projection make it an essential choice. The GIBSON Original Collection SJ-200 60s (OCJB2060HFHCS) incorporates the essential elements of the original Super Jumbo, enhanced with a Baggs HiFi DNA preamp for a first-class acoustic experience.

All-solid-wood construction for unmatched sound

The SJ-200 60s stands out for its all-solid-wood construction, combining exceptional traditional woods:

• AAA Sitka Spruce top
• AAA maple body and sides
• Maple neck
• Rosewood fingerboard (20 frets)

The tones it produces are clear, powerful, and percussive, with precise bass, well-defined mids, and highs that offer excellent articulation. Its Super Jumbo body size delivers a warm yet dynamic acoustic sound, ideal for singers, songwriters, and fans of country, Americana, or traditional folk music.

Innovative preamp technology to capture the acoustic essence

The SJ-200 60s Original is equipped with the exclusive Baggs HiFi DNA system, which uses two pickups positioned under the bridge plate, replacing the traditional piezo.

• One pickup captures the vibrations of the strings
• The other picks up the vibrations of the soundboard

This configuration allows for more natural and dynamic recordings, reproducing the instrument’s original acoustic character with unmatched fidelity. Each pickup is paired with its own active preamp, while the volume and tone controls are discreetly located on the inner edge of the soundhole.
