Comments	The iconic Gibson J200 isn’t just an impressive looking guitar. It can be an incredibly good sounding instrument. This example of 1958 Gibson J200 Sunburst production is in quite good condition and has a full, rich sound. The tuners were changed at some point to period Epiphone gears. There is a small chip in the edge of the headstock near the D tuner, ther eare some dings and scratches around the guitar, but overall it’s in good shape.
