flatbaroque 62 Report post Posted April 13, 2015 Am I missing something here? A J-200 on Gumtree Sydney. Brand new signed by JT. I can't get the link to work...maybe that explains who and why JT is and why he is defacing guitars?? http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/surry-hills/guitars-amps/gibson-j-200-standard-brand-new/1075589615 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigKahune 449 Report post Posted April 13, 2015 . Here's the corrected link (the slashes were wrong character) - http://www2.gibson.com/Products/Acoustic-Instruments/Super-Jumbo/Gibson-Acoustic/SJ-200-Standard.aspx No mention of JT on the Gibson site. Perhaps someone of notoriety in OZ? . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duluthdan 84 Report post Posted April 13, 2015 I'm fairly certain it is not our friend JT. Especially on a J-200, which he happened to view as a bit "gaudy". Maybe it would trace back to James Taylor? Lord knows why his signature would be on a J-200. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
modoc_333 28 Report post Posted April 14, 2015 or Justin Timberlake. he goes by JT these days..... or maybe it's a nobody JT and someone is just trying to mislead without technically telling a lie -Keith Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flatbaroque 62 Report post Posted April 14, 2015 haha...Justin Timberlake! you may be right.I'll take two Other possibilities are actress Jessica Tandy known for her Elizabeth Cotton like blues licks or perhaps JRR Tolkein...(I think Hobbits lived in Maple trees). he was fond of J-200's.

flatbaroque 62 Report post Posted April 14, 2015 I did google Justin Timberlake's signature and the curve of the J on the soundboard does look similar.Not sure why anyone would get him to sign a new J-200.I would have thought his appeal wouldn't be very strong in the general demographic buying J-200's (even though he plays one).

bobouz 225 Report post Posted April 15, 2015 Whenever I see a signature on a guitar, I'm thinking, "How can I get that signature off that guitar???" Yup, I find a signature on the top to be a total turn off. Could probably live with one on the back somewhere (back of the headstock - most tolerable), but on the top really ruins the guitar for me.

ajay 8 Report post Posted April 19, 2015 Justin is a great singer, but signing a J-200? Maybe a Keith Urban guitar, but not MY Gibson. No way no how! Shouldn't he be signing microphones? He definitely ain't no John Mayer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flatbaroque 62 Report post Posted April 19, 2015 Maybe Justin Townes Earle has become estranged from his old man and now goes by the name Justin Townes. So many JT's to consider! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
