1969 Gibson J200 – £6499

NEW ARRIVAL What can you say about the J200 that hasn’t already been said. It really is the King of the Flat Tops. Probably the most recognisable acoustic guitar of all time. Think Elvis, Bob Dylan, George Harrison, the Rolling Stones, Pete Townsend, Noel Gallagher….. The list goes on. It’s difficult not to talk about the looks before even mentioning the sound. A dark golden finish with the classic poppy head pickguard, moustache bridge, crown fingerboard inlays, waffle back tuners. One strum of this guitar and you know what it’s all about – a bright, shimmering tone, making every chord sound better, great clarity and long sustain, it actually sounds quite orchestral. The guitar is in excellent condition, and plays really well, all original other than the upgraded bone saddle, with no cracks or repairs. It even comes in it’s original hard case.

NEW ARRIVAL The L-00 is probably Gibson’s most desirable pre war acoustic, and they’re becoming more difficult to find. This is an old warhorse of a guitar, and has the scars to prove it – although there are no top or back cracks, there are bullet entry and exit...
