Product Description
The King of the Flat-tops, with the vintage vibe and feel from the era that gave birth to some of the most prized Gibson Acoustic instruments. This new Custom Shop 1957 SJ-200 offers details such as hand-selected maple for the back and sides, a headstock stinger, and Gibson`s thermally aged top for the full vintage effect.
The guitar also features Light Aging by the skilled artisans of the Murphy Lab. The Murphy Lab Light Aged finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of light play wear, giving it the unique character, vibe, and feel of an original example from the Gibson Golden Era.
Key Features
- Gibson Custom Shop Murphy Lab - By implementing a range of ingenious techniques from the expert mind of Master Artisan Tom Murphy, the result is an authentic recreation of iconic models from Gibson's illustrious past - complete with all the quality in this guitar.
- Thermally-Aged Tonal Woods - The wood used for the neck, top, back & sides of the guitar have been thermally heat treated, which results in more resonance & higher tuning stability.
