Overview
This is based on the J-200 guitar which was first produced by Gibson in 1937 as their premium flat top at that time.
The current Epiphone EJ-200SCE adds a cutaway to the Super Jumbo body and includes Epiphone’s eSonic2 pickup system.
Epiphone have a strong reputation for making great acoustic-electrics in this price range and based upon customer reviews it appears the EJ-200SCE lives up to these high expectations.
