By Stephen Pate – The Bob Dylan Gibson J-200 Player’s Edition will soon be sold out. Amazon.com started with 7 guitars and now they only have one Gibson Bob Dylan SJ-200 Player’s Edition Acoustic-Electric Vintage Sunburst left in stock.

If you have any interest or intention in owning the Bob Dylan Gibson J-200 now is the time to order it. Amazon.com  have one in stock.

Musicians Friend, Sweetwater and all the big dealers are back-ordered.

I am tracking down a Gibson Bob Dylan Player’s Edition J-200 in Canada – pretty sure there is one left.

I got mine last Friday – yes I got one of these magnificent Bob Dylan J-200 Gibson guitars and it’s everything I thought it would be and more. It took me weeks to take the plunge and another 2 weeks to get my guitar.  I simply could not pass up owning a Bob Dylan official Gibson after I heard the sound.

OK it’s the most expensive guitar I own, but not by a large amount. I have 3 excellent Martin guitars worth close to the Dylan J-200 plus a Gibson ES-335 of the same quality.

The Dylan J-200 plays like a dream. The sound is magnificent, full round and rich.

You know how the guy was awed in the video review Amazing Sound From Gibson Bob Dylan SJ-200 Player’s Edition? That’s the jaw-dropping feeling I got and still get playing the Dylan J-200.

I love the neck which is easy on my hands. The guitar responds to finger picking but really opens up with a pick and gets better the harder you play.

My wife said “Gone Country have ya?” on the first song I played with the big guitar sound.

The guitar surprised me with a chorus effect playing it through a Fender Eric Clapton Vibro-Champ 5W with a slight tremolo effect. First, it should be the wrong amp but it isn’t. Second, the Dylan J-200 was competing with the amp for volume.

The fit and finish of the guitar is impeccable. There is not a mark, imperfection, or finish ripple on the neck or AAA flame maple body. The Adirondack red spruce top appears to be a one-piece which is rare these days. It’s just gorgeous. The only quibble I have, and it’s a tiny one, is that the braces inside are not sanded smooth.
