fortyearspickn Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Lars, here's one at an East Coast GC. Great shape - but double your budget. You should seriously consider looking for an opportunity to play another, just to ramp up the gas. https://www.guitarcenter.com/Used/Gibson/SJ200-Original-Acoustic-Electric-Guitar.gc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to rethink my original $2000.00 goal.. I’m not seeing anything in that range that I want.. I’m going to advertise a few Guitars for Sale with local pick up & see if I can move some quickly.. The SJ-200’s are at the top of my list now.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had five of them. One Koa, One Rosewood and a few Maples. I liked the maple the best. When I downsized a couple years ago, I figured if I missed them, I could always find a maple. I did miss them and got me a maple one earlier this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortyearspickn Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I have had a maple for 15+ years - it is my best sounding guitar. Better than any I've played anywhere. But, I'm not anywhere close to being an expert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than any I've played anywhere. But, I'm not anywhere close to being an expert. I definitely want to try the Maple SJ-200’s.. The seem to sound very Clean, Clear & Articulate.. Which, IMO, is a good thing.. I have a really great Spruce & Mahogany Gibson J-160E & a beautiful sounding 48 year old Martin D-35.. So Maple might make a lot of sense.. As far as color I’m open.. Sound comes first.. I should probably start a new Thread since, like so many other Threads, it’s drifted a long way from the Title Thread! LOL!
