The "J-200 Epiphone Inspired by Gibson J-200" is a dazzling tribute to the king of flat-tops - the world famous Gibson™ SJ-200. Since its introduction in 1937, it has been the choice of "singing cowboys" like Tex Ritter and Gene Autry, as well as folk, rock and country royalty, including Emmylou Harris, Elvis, Jimmy Page, Bob Dylan, George Harrison , The Edge, and many others. Featuring a Super Jumbo solid uncut maple soundbox, a solid Sitka spruce top and a two-piece maple neck with a mahogany center strip, the Epiphone J-200 is built with all solid woods for exceptional sound. Visual elements have always been a big part of the J-200's appeal, and the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson J-200 features a Mustache™ bridge with curved block inlays, a Crown headstock inlay, and diamond inlays. Graduated Crown mother-of-pearl fingerboard, and a J-200 style pickguard with two-color graphics.
