Gibson Johnny Cash SJ-200 Vintage Cherry Sunburst

Johnny Cash profoundly impacted multiple genres, including country, rock and roll, rockabilly, blues, folk, and gospel music. He sold over 90 million records and was inducted into the Country Music, Rock and Roll, Gospel Music, Rockabilly, Nashville Songwriters, and the Memphis Music Halls of Fame. He received 13 GRAMMY® Awards, including a GRAMMY Lifetime Achievement Award in 1999 and nine CMA awards, and was a recipient of Kennedy Center Honors and the National Medal of Arts. In the late 50s, Gibson made two SJ-200s for Cash that featured his name inlaid in mother of pearl on the fretboard and a distinctive pickguard designed by Johnny Cash himself. Gibson Custom is proud to release recreations of these guitars to honor his legacy. Only 100 of these beautiful and highly-requested instruments were hand-made by the expert luthiers of the Gibson Custom Shop in Bozeman, Montana, as part of this remarkable limited run.
