The other two (J-1000 and J-1500) only managed a few dozen examples, and were discontinued in 1993, I believe, while the J-2000 ran through for a good dozen years, having been officially discontinued in 2005 or so.įor fun, here's a side-x-side comparison of the J-2000 and the J-1500 (sunburst).
Mine has very lovely Indian r/w b&s, and a red spruce top. All three are made with spruce top and rosewood back and sides, although the J-2000, being a Custom Shop guitar, can be and has also been built with maple back and sides, koa (one of my favourites) and other woods. The J-2000 is the most blinged-out of the three.
The J-2000 was introduced in 1992, one of Ren Ferguson's brainchild(ren), along with the less ornate J-1000 and the mid-way ornate J-1500. This a 1996 model, which was begun in 1994, then sat unfinished on a shelf in the Custom Shop till 1996, when it was finished. Yes, I have both seen a few examples of them and have played them. The seller mentions absolutely nothing about the sound of the guitar. There is just no equal.Has anyone seen' date=' played or even heard of this guitar? I'm not much for cutaways, but I think this is a fine looking instrument. It represents more than a century of originality and quality. There is no mistaking the traditional, mother-of-pearl logo design, pressed onto the face of the headstock. Gibson Logo- The Gibson name has beautified the most cutting-edge and revolutionary guitars of timethe Super Jumbos, the J-45, the Hummingbird, the Dove. The SJ-200 Custom records the deep, well-balanced tone and effective sound of these famous guitars, and are nearly identical in makeup and structure to the most popular 1950s versions consisting of an Adirondack red spruce leading and Vintage Original Spec (VOS) finish. The SJ-200 was initially constructed to cut with the loudest acoustic ensembles, but ended up specifying the brand-new American music scene of the 1930s on its means to ending up being the world s most well-known guitar. The SJ-200 Custom guitar provides the look, feel, and sound of Gibson s initial Super Jumbo as it first appeared in 1937.
Features the original Gibson hardshell case. I am selling it since its been sitting in the case lately, and it requires a good house. The guitar is in exceptional condition and has actually been well looked after since I bought it originally in 1999. I think it has a pick-up inside, though I did not use it a lot. How lots of times have you seen a Nashville artist or recording star playing one of these guitars? It's a terrific guitar for strumming, and loud enough to cut through, specifically with the full bass noise this guitar provides. This is a tough choice, but I require to sell my Gibson SJ-200 guitar.
