The Epiphone EJ-200CE pushes the King of the Flat Tops into the future, with a dramatic cutout for full access to the top freight and the eSonic2 preamp system.
Originally released in 1937, the J-200 style set a standard of guitar excellence that others have been trying to match ever since. Today, more than 70 years later, the legacy of the King of Flat-tops lives on in our EJ 200CE.
The EJ-200 style is quite simply the most famous acoustic guitar in the world, known equally for its majestic looks and focused, complex tone.
When the EJ-200 was first introduced, it immediately filled the need for a deeper, more balanced, and more powerful acoustic instrument capable of projecting on stage and on the radio. The J-200 was a radically new design, bigger and bolder than any previous guitar, capable of projecting far beyond any other acoustic guitar on the market - a fact that still holds true today. today with the EJ-200CE.
Every great rhythm guitarist and vocalist of the last century has made the J-200 their primary acoustic instrument on stage (and for record covers too), including Don Everly, Bob Dylan, Robbie Robertson, Emmylou Harris, Elvis Presley, Gram Parsons, Buddy Holly and Pete Townshend. The EJ-200CE gives you all the best of this iconic and historic guitar, without the headache or price of an original guitar plus a modern sound system so you can be heard anywhere.
Like all Epiphone instruments, the EJ-200CE is backed by our limited lifetime warranty and 24/7/365 Gibson instrument family customer service. Get an EJ-200Ce today and become a fan of the King of the Flat-tops!
