2016 Epiphone EJ-200SCE/VS — Vintage Sunburst, Made in Indonesia
This is a 2016 Epiphone EJ-200SCE/VS, a cutaway acoustic-electric tribute to Gibson's "King of the Flat Tops," the legendary SJ-200. The Vintage Sunburst finish, gold Grover tuners, mustache bridge, and tortoise-style floral pickguard deliver the iconic J-200 look at a fraction of the original's cost.
Inspired by a design first introduced in 1937, the EJ-200SCE/VS pairs a solid spruce top with select maple back and sides for the bold, balanced jumbo voice the J-200 line is known for. The graceful Florentine cutaway opens up the upper register for soloing, and the onboard Shadow NanoFlex + NanoMag dual pickup system, driven by the eSonic2 preamp, captures the guitar's natural acoustic tone for the stage.

== WHY THIS GUITAR ==
The EJ-200SCE/VS is the most player-friendly evolution of the J-200 silhouette: jumbo projection, cutaway access, and a dual-source pickup system that holds its own on any stage. Solid spruce tops only get better with time, and at nearly a decade old this example has had the chance to open up. Anyone chasing the unmistakable J-200 voice and visual presence without the price tag of a Gibson original will find a lot to love here.
