Hidden live persona

Discreet. It's how it should be. No one needs chunks of wood chopping out of their instrument. Especially one like the SJ-200. So Gibson did it right and equipped the SJ-200 with a Fishman Sonitone. Not only do they have a renowned reputation globally, but their meticulous designs have long been seen as making live performance exactly what it should be. Pure, pristine, and natural. A faithful representation of the SJ-200's acoustic character. And with such a distinctive, dynamic, iconic acoustic tone, it would be a crime not to take to any live setting, the second you get the chance to. Because it captures all that unmistakable Gibson magic. Plus, it's easy to reach into the soundhole and adjust the tone or volume dials to your personal taste. Recreate something special and evoke the presence of a legend with the SJ-200.
