A legend reborn from one of the most coveted eras in acoustic history, the Epiphone Pre-War SJ-200 Rosewood Reissue brings the grandeur of a rare vintage icon into the hands of today’s players. Available at Haggerty’s Music, this remarkable instrument draws direct inspiration from the elusive pre-war SJ-200 models of the late 1930s; guitars that earned their place as some of the most visually stunning and sonically powerful acoustics ever created.

Crafted with solid rosewood back and sides paired with a thermally aged solid spruce top, this jumbo delivers a rich, piano-like low end, shimmering highs, and a complex midrange that blooms with every note. The traditional scalloped X-bracing enhances resonance and responsiveness, while the large SJ-200 body shape provides the kind of projection and depth that made it known as “The King of the Flat-Tops.” The two-piece maple neck with a rosewood stringer offers stability and comfort, while the bound ebony fretboard with mother-of-pearl graduated crown inlays completes the unmistakable vintage aesthetic.

Designed for both stage and studio, this reissue is equipped with an L.R. Baggs VTC pickup system for natural, articulate amplified tone. Premium appointments like gold Grover Imperial tuners, a classic moustache bridge with pearl inlays, and a beautifully detailed headstock elevate the experience even further. It arrives protected in a Red Line-inspired hardshell case, making this instrument not just a guitar, but a piece of history ready to be played and preserved.
