1964 Gibson J-200 Acoustic Guitar (Sunburst) Sunburst

Bay Area Vintage Guitars is proud to showcase a true piece of musical history: the 1964 Gibson J-200. Crafted in Kalamazoo, Michigan, this iconic acoustic guitar stands out with its natural patina and the visually captivating sunburst finish that has gracefully aged over the decades.

Renowned for its robust construction and unparalleled aesthetic charm, the J-200 is among the most revered acoustic models Gibson has ever produced. This guitar's body is constructed from the finest materials—luxuriously figured maple on the back and sides and a spruce top that contributes to its powerful, punchy, and woody tone. The sound is as big as its history, filled with volume, power, and an unmistakable resonance that only a well-aged Gibson can offer.

Featuring original elements like the mustache bridge plate and Tune-O-Matic bridge, this guitar maintains its historical integrity and superb playability. The tuners were changed to gold Grover's. The bound dark rosewood fingerboard adorned with pearl inlays and a single-bound headstock featuring the pearl Gibson logo and crown inlays enhance its sophisticated appearance.

Despite its age, this J-200 has reasonable cosmetic wear—nicks, dings, and light scratches—that tell the story of its 60 years of music-making. These imperfections do not detract from the guitar's performance but add to its character. The original frets and nut show plenty of life left, ready to play for many more years.

This Gibson J-200 is a testament to the enduring legacy of Gibson's craftsmanship. Perfect for collectors and musicians alike who appreciate vintage sound and timeless beauty, this guitar is a remarkable find. It includes a hardshell case.
