Western Classic Prewar 200
During the mid-1930s, Ray Whitleyone of the original singing cowboysapproached Gibson to build a custom acoustic. The result was the first J-200 in 1937, which Whitley used exclusively for many years, and is now displayed at the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, Tennessee. Gibsons Custom Western Classic J-200 is a painstaking recreation of that celebrated guitar.
Period Correct Gibson Script Logo
The Gibson name has graced the most innovative and revolutionary acoustic guitars of our timethe Super Jumbos, the J-45, the Hummingbird, the Dove. There is no mistaking the classic, period correct mother-of-pearl script logo, pressed onto the face of the headstock. It represents more than a century of originality and excellence. There is simply no equal.
Gold Waverly Tuners
Waverly tuners are considered some of the finest in the industry, and thats why their style and performance are exactly suited for the Custom Western Classic J-200. With a gear ratio of 16:1, these handmade Waverly tuning machines are fitted with solid brass tuner knobs, and feature vintage-style tapered string posts, combining stainless steel with bronze to deliver smooth, non-slip tuning.
Historic Flower Pot Peghead Inlay
Early versions of the Gibsons historic flower pot peghead inlay appeared on some of the earliest Gibson mandolins of the 1910s, and eventually developed into the design used today. This classic inlay has graced the headstocks of many classic Gibson guitars, including the legendary L-5, the Byrdland, and todays Custom Western Classic J-200.
Pickguard
The exclusive, period correct black pickguard on the Custom Western Classic J-200 is modeled after the one designed for the very first J-200, which was built for Ray Whitleyone of the original singing cowboys of the 1930s. As with all of Gibson Acoustics pickguards, the coloring, inlay, and binding are all done by hand.
Rosette
A rosette is the beautiful, hand-crafted circle around the soundhole, and can be one of the most ornamental elements of any acoustic guitar. It is also one of the most subtle and complicated woodworking decorations on any acoustic guitar. The rosette on the Custom Western Classic J-200 is a double-ring rosette, with the main ring consisting of seven-ply binding, and the second ring three-ply binding, adding a stylish, understated elegance to this classic J-200.
Ebony Fingerboard with Rolled Edges and Block Inlays
The fingerboard of Gibsons Custom Western Classic J-200 is constructed from the highest grade ebony on earth, which is personally inspected and qualified by Gibsons team of skilled experts before it enters the Gibson factories. The resilience of this durable wood makes the fingerboard extremely balanced and stable, and gives each chord and note unparalleled clarity and bite. The Custom Western Classic J-200s classic block inlays are made of genuine mother of pearl, and are inserted into the fingerboard using a process that eliminates gaps and doesnt require the use of fillers. The fingerboard also sports a rolled edgeinstead of the usual right angle where the fingerboard surface meets the neck, Gibson Acoustics rolled edges are slightly beveled for an extremely smooth and comfortable feel, enhancing the playability of this J-200.
Body Tonewoods (back, sides and top)
The top of the Custom Western Classic J-200 is made from beautiful AAA-grade Sitka spruce, while the back and sides are constructed from AAA-grade Rosewood, giving the Custom Western Classic J-200 a warmer, richer tone with a booming low end and overall incredible huge sound. Selecting the right wood, and the formula to dry it out, are two of the most central procedures to Gibsons guitar-building process. Beginning with its first catalog in 1903, Gibson has assured its customers that every guitar would be built using woods with the most durable, elastic, and sonorous qualities, and todays guitars from Gibson Acoustic are no different.
Radius Top
The top of many flat-top guitars are under a lot of stress from the pull of the strings, which can eventually compromise the top. So, while most acoustic guitars are true flat-top guitars, all of the acoustics produced by Gibson in Bozeman, Montana have a radiused, or tuned top. Instead of being perfectly flat, a radiused or tuned top is raised slightly, and a special instrument is used to shape the top braces to the radius of the top. This process adds tension and strengthens the top, creating a less stressful joint where the top meets the sides and reducing the stresses of string pull. It also results in a speaker cone effect that maximizes sound projection, adding a significant boost to mid-range levels for a more balanced acoustic tone.
Bracing
Every acoustic guitar made by Gibson features hand-scalloped, radiused top bracing inside the body, a feature normally found only in limited run, hand-made guitars. By scalloping each brace by hand, the natural sound of the acoustic is focused more toward the center of the body, enhancing the instruments sound projection. The lightweight bracing pattern inside the Custom Western Classic J-200 is the same pattern used in Gibsons first Super Jumbo in 1937constructed to support and strengthen a very large surface, thus allowing the top more freedom of movement to vibrate and project sound. The placement of the braces inside the Custom Western Classic J-200 also creates powerful, deep lows with full frequency range. The result is the incredibly balanced, huge sound that Gibsons Super Jumbos are so noted for.

Protégez votre investissement avec la Garantie de fiabilité Long & McQuade.
Une bonne garantie est souvent un facteur décisif au moment d’un achat. Étant donné qu’une réparation peut être très dispendieuse, les manufacturiers n’offrent en général qu’une protection limitée d’un an couvrant seulement les défauts de fabrication. Lors d’une acquisition aussi importante que celle d’un instrument de musique ou d’une pièce d’équipement, vous voudrez avoir l’assurance que votre achat sera protégé de façon adéquate.
C’est pourquoi Long & McQuade offre une année GRATUITE de sa Garantie de fiabilité sur la plupart de ses produits. Cette couverture, qui bonifie celle du fabricant, vous procurera la tranquillité d’esprit que vous recherchez.
En quoi la garantie Long & McQuade se distingue-t-elle de celles des autres fabricants?
- Fiabilité assurée : l’usure normale de certaines pièces est couverte. Le produit fonctionnera aussi bien qu’au premier jour pour toute la durée de la protection. Pour les instruments d’orchestre, nos techniciens et techniciennes évalueront la nécessité d’effectuer un nettoyage en profondeur, un remplacement de tampons ou un nettoyage à ultrasons. Ces services ne sont pas offerts systématiquement dans le cadre de la Garantie de fiabilité.
- Possibilité de remplacement : si votre produit est irréparable ou coûte trop cher à remettre en état, nous l’échangerons contre un modèle identique ou équivalent, sans frais supplémentaires. Si ce n’est pas possible, nous vous accorderons un remboursement complet.
- Politique anticitron : si votre article présente un problème récurrent, nous le remplacerons.
- Accessibilité : vous pouvez vous prévaloir de votre garantie dans n’importe quelle succursale Long & McQuade.
- Réglage de guitare : une mise au point gratuite est incluse à l’achat de toute guitare neuve ou d’occasion.
- Prêt de matériel : un produit de rechange peut être mis à votre disposition pendant la réparation de votre article.
- Survoltage couvert : l’appareil est garanti même s’il est endommagé par une surtension.
- Assurance-accessoires : tous les accessoires fournis avec le produit (pédale, étui, etc.) sont couverts.
- Usage commercial approuvé : l’équipement acheté pour une utilisation intensive bénéficie aussi de cette protection.
Long & McQuade se réserve le droit de limiter l’achat d’années additionnelles. Les produits d’occasion sont protégés par la Garantie de fiabilité pour une durée de trois mois. Certains articles (logiciels, cymbales, etc.) sont couverts uniquement par la garantie du fabricant. Les biens non durables (cordes, anches, baguettes, piles, tubes, etc.) sont exclus, tout comme les dommages accidentels, la détérioration esthétique et les problèmes causés par l’humidité ou la température. Les haut-parleurs endommagés par un usage excessif ne sont généralement pas couverts. Notre garantie ne compense pas la perte de jouissance. A partir de juin 2018, la garantie de performance n'est plus transférable. Valide seulement au Canada.
Achat d’années additionnelles de garantie
Certains fabricants offrent une garantie de plus d’un an, mais qui est en général limitée et moins avantageuse que la nôtre. Lorsque c’est le cas, la prolongation de notre protection vous sera tout de même profitable, du fait qu’elle est plus complète et pratique.
