The Korena take

Gibson Custom’s left-handed Pre-War SJ-200 Rosewood is a 1930s-inspired acoustic guitar with a thermally aged red spruce top, rosewood back and sides, and traditional hand-scalloped X-bracing joined with hide glue. It is built around a 25.5 in. scale and 20-fret ebony fingerboard, with a bone nut and saddle. Vintage Sunburst nitrocellulose VOS finishing, crown inlays and Grover Imperial tuners complete its period-focused presentation.
