Gibson Custom Shop J-200 Junior Electro Acoustic Guitar in Vintage Sunburst

The Gibson Acoustic J-200 Junior is a fresh take on one of Gibson’s most iconic acoustics, served up with all the character, vibe and sparkle you'd expect from the Greatest Hits Collection. Gibson have reimagined some of their most beloved instruments for this series, and the J-200 Junior absolutely nails that blend of classic heritage with bold, modern flair.

Compact size, big‑time heritage

Sure, it’s more compact than a full-fat SJ-200, but don’t be fooled — this isn’t some shrunken-down novelty. With its full-size J-180 body, the J-200 Junior proudly carries DNA that stretches right back to the golden era of the 1950s.

Super jumbo sound, dialled for balance

You still get all the hallmarks of a true Super Jumbo: a Sitka Spruce top, traditional scalloped X-bracing and gorgeous Maple back and sides. Tonally, it delivers that rich Gibson shimmer, but with a tighter, more focused response compared to the thunderous low-end of a traditional SJ-200. Think beautifully balanced, articulate and lively across all six strings.

Classic Gibson style, front & centre

Gibson didn’t skimp on the eye candy. The J-200 Junior is dripping with classic Super Jumbo elegance: the iconic moustache bridge with bar inlays, an engraved pickguard and crisp crown inlays topping a bound Rosewood fingerboard.

Playability that feels like home
