the J 200 is on my wish list to own or at least try, I was able to try a couple times but it was at gear fest and it is so loud really hard to get a good feel and listen.
I prefer ebony or walnut or rosewood, I tried the richlite probably 5 years ago and was not found of them. I have tried the most recent on Gibson's and I think it was much better, To me they ised to be sticky.
