The pickup's ergonomic soundhole-mounted design puts slider controls at the player's fingertips to maintain a natural playing position. A Phase Switch and automatic Anti-Feedback device aids in controlling feedback. The Ellipse Aura features Pickup/Image Blend, Volume and switchable Natural I and Natural II low frequency tone shaping. The Ellipse Aura combines Fishman's most sophisticated onboard preamp design with the power of Aura Acoustic Imaging Technology for exceptional accuracy and true to life sound. 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 today's guitars from Gibson Acoustic are no different. Selecting the right wood, and the formula to dry it out, are two of the most central procedures to Gibson's guitar-building process. The top of the SJ-200 Standard is made from beautiful AAA-grade Sitka spruce, while the back and sides are constructed from AAA-grade Eastern curly maple, giving the SJ-200 Standard all the deep, well-balanced tone and powerful sound of Gibson's celebrated Super Jumbos. This process is done entirely by hand, requiring patience and skill. It is also a complex and expensive neck joint to build, but the result is a tight, locking connection that supports the neck at the proper neck-pitch angle, allowing the body and neck to become one solid piece of resonating wood, with no metal to impede vibration.

The dovetail neck joint is one of the oldest-and best-ways of securely joining the neck to the body of a guitar. The fingerboard also sports traditional binding over the fret ends, which was a staple feature of many classic Gibson acoustics for many years. The SJ-200's graduated crown inlays are made of genuine mother of pearl, and are inserted into the fingerboard using a process that eliminates gaps and doesn't require the use of fillers. The resilience of this durable wood makes the fingerboard extremely balanced and stable, and gives each chord and note unparalleled clarity and bite. The fingerboard of Gibson's SJ-200 Standard is constructed from the highest grade rosewood on earth, which is personally inspected and qualified by Gibson's team of skilled experts before it enters the Gibson factories. Rosewood Fingerboard with Traditional Binding and Graduated Crown Inlays Over the years, it has also been called a "thistle" because of the group of flowering plants with the sharp prickles, though Gibson has preferred to call it a "crown." Gibson put the first crown peghead logo on an ES-300 back in 1940, and it has graced the headstocks of many legendary Gibson guitars ever since, including today's SJ-200 Standard. All moving parts are cut for exact meshing, eliminating the possibility of slippage, with a special lubricant inside the gear box for smooth and accurate tuning stability. With a gear ratio of 15:1, these Gotoh tuners deliver precision tuning in a durable housing that provides maximum protection for the gear and string post. Gibson's SJ-200 Standard features Gotoh's green button, Kluson-style tuners. It represents more than a century of originality and excellence. There is no mistaking the classic, mother-of-pearl logo, pressed onto the face of the headstock. The Gibson name has graced the most innovative and revolutionary acoustic guitars of our time-the Super Jumbos, the J-45, the Hummingbird, the Dove. The SJ-200 Standard sings with deep, well-balanced tone and powerful sound. The SJ-200 was originally built to cut through the loudest acoustic ensembles, but ended up defining the new American music scene of the 1930s on its way to becoming the world's most famous acoustic guitar. The SJ-200 Standard acoustic guitar delivers the look, feel, and sound of Gibson's original Super Jumbo as it first appeared in 1937.
