#FlatTopFriday #1941GibsonSJ200
1) country roads / John Denver
2) heart of gold / Uncle Neil (Young)
are you freakin kidding me, sickest SJ
great demo Mark, Hi Jen 🎥📹🎸
Yeah that's the best acoustic you'll ever do good job Mark and Jen
bassman686 thanks Bassman 👍🏼
Mike M. Dude, M.A. crushed it all week!! Awesome version of country roads on that dolled up SJ really made my night..
Mark should have played this whilst wearing his leather jacket, just to give all the zipper-bitches a fucking embolism.
Niq Scott ya yes, that would have been great. That guitar is simply a gem, exquisite.
Join me fellow players in a fervent prayer that this absolute gem of a guitar doesn't end up locked inside a display case (like countless others) unplayed. First time I've ever heard an acoustic "break up" from shear volume. And when tickled, every single note is clear and distinct. The high water mark of steel six string acoustic.
John A it won’t. Joe bonamassa prob already bought it.
Three words to prevent that fate. Trump ....Travel ....Ban. Oh wait , Saudi oil barrons and Nippon businessmen won't be stopped. Never mind
"Only a Gibson is good enough" is not just a punchline.
Speechless...so clear and beautiful. One of the best sounding guitars I've ever heard.
What a beautiful guitar! Sounds amazing! Thank you Mark & Jen. I always look forward to FTF 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for sharing that beautiful sounding instrument with us!

It took that exquisite instrument and Mark's beautiful playing to bring the full beauty out of "Country Roads".

When do these post? They are the highlight of my day. I love the information. I've watched everyone and feel like I could go forth and tell people what they have.
Now thats what i call eye candy what a great guitar . Mark the tune selection was awesome my kind of music.
Listened to A LOT of John Denver as a kid. Thanks for the jaunt down memory lane.
I WATCH EVERY DAY, Mark.
And THIS is why I watch every day.
Wow that thing looks AWESOME at 10p :-) and sounds great through the camera mic. Can only imagine what it sounds like in person. That is definitely one of a kind.
Bad frickin ass! Sounds sweet and is beautiful as well.... nice playing
Great song choices Mark !!
Country Roads gave me goosebumps here. Wow.
So bad ass. Thank you Mark for being a daily watch.
I like the songs you change up between styles what a great guitar
Beatiuful Gutiar And Superb Finger Picking. Mark You Are Awesome
Amazing guitar...
The best sounding flat top yet. And that is saying something. This tops even the recent Martin 00045. What a spectacular sounding guitar. I’m not a jumbo fan per se, but Wow. Thanks Mark.
Oh yeah, listened to a lot of your flat tops but this is just gorgeous even on you tube through my iMac.BOOM!
The tone from that guitar is awesome, just cuts through like a knife.
Wow........amazing guitar
Wow even though my phone, you can tell this sounds beautiful.
Boooommmmm!!!! Amazing Instrument🤘🤘🤘❤❤
I have seen numerous sj-200 guitars on TV and in shops. You can see the over the top quality this guitar has that the others do not. OMG!!!
Ain't that sumpin'?! Just heavenly.
You always do justice to the sj200’s
That thing is beyond mega sweet. Beautiful playing as always, Mark. Rock On!
Rock Hard Riffs heck yeah
OK! That guitar/playing has moved me to comment and subscribe. Unbelievable. Wow!
Always good
Keeping fingers crossed for 40th Birthday/Straturday shout out! These are now part of my morning routine.
man...that thing sounds amazing!
The most beautiful acoustic ive ever seen. I'm a Martin guy but this is the bomb.
Exceeded everyone's expectations for flat top Friday😎🎸🍺🍻
I normally don't go nuts over acoustics, but this is the most beautiful looking and sounding acoustic flattop I have ever seen and heard. I hope it goes to someone who can play it like it deserves to be played (which ain't me, BTW).
Guitars like this are why we have obsessions with the things!
That folks, is a freaking cannon. I am blown away.
incredible
Song 1: Take Me Home Country Roads - John Denver
Song 2: Heart of Gold - Neil Young
I gotta agree with Mark here, that is a bloody _awesome_ sounding acoustic
WOW. That cowboy who ordered it was soooooo effin right. Sounds amazing and looks that could kill. Thanks guys! Byeeee 🎸 🤠
Even through the camera mic that SJ sounds amazing. The rosewood does make for a fuller sound for sure.
Whoa that sounds sick!!!!
Beautiful guitar great playing Mark.👍 Hi jen.😊
Mouth hanging open, slight drooling.. awesome guitar! :)
Country Roads sounded so beautiful on that beauty
That guitar is 2 years older than me, I am 74. It would be interesting to know the original sale price back in 1941. What an amazing instrument. Thanks Mark. Hi Jen :-)
I might be wrong, but not counting custom work, $200. At least that's where a lot of the early Gibsons got their numerical value.
Carlo Von Sexron Wow... I did not know that. Thanks Carlo.
Like I said, I might be wrong for the SJ, but certainly some of those early Gibsons had their numbers assigned according to their respective list price.
For instance, originally a Super 400 was $400, but an ES-335, according to Wikipedia, was $267.50 in 1958. Go figure.
At least it gives ballpark figures. $400 was a lot of money way back then. And in 1958 I was high school kid playing a beat up nylon string Spanish that I bought for $5:00... A 335 was just an impossible dream. Just like this beautiful 200 is now. What is interesting is that I can buy a new 200 for what... $4500..? Is the "collectabilty" of this one really worth $120,000 more? Norm and Mark would say "Of course"... LOL
By far the most sensitive loud and best tone guitar I've heard on this show.
Wow, what a big sound that guitar has. I prefer the way the Martins sound (the one last week was to die for), but it’s a personal preference. For 1960’s-70’s folk and country/western this Gibson is perfect.
That guitar tickles you back.
I've always wanted to have a SJ-200, but now, I want one even more.
I think for along time Tele Tuesday was my favorite day but Flattop Friday def reigns supreme now
You've hit the big time Mr. Agnesi.
Interesting collection of bursts from the last 2 days
God-damn!!!! Just when you think you've seen enough Gibsons......this comes at ya.
Still wouldn't mind seeing a vintage Recording King though.
Those first notes at 5:57 made me let out an audible "Fuccccccck!" This thing is gorgeous.
Wow, I've always preferred vintage Martins but that might be the most gorgeous guitar I've ever seen.
way back in the day straps came with strings looped around the button holes. so you could tie it to the headstock above the nut.
SONG 1: Country Roads-John Denver
Song 2: Heart Of Gold-Neal Young and Crazy Horse.
That guitar is gorgeous, and worth more than my house. I saw it on the website last night. Cheers from K.C.
beauty
That is a very nice sounding guitar
Not really a Gibson acoustic guy, but this one is special. Rhythm machine
Long live the spirit of John Denver's music ❣❣ 💓
I can really dig it.
Mr.Stranger DEF DUG 🎸🤘🏻
If I COULD afford it, I would never be able to play it...too afraid of marring that INCREDIBLE finish...what a beautiful instrument.
man i dont play guitar and im not into acoustics but holy shit this guitar is... many things, all of them amazing
God this thing sounds great
Unbelievable guitar. Not much else you can say.
OMG what a beautiful looking and sounding piece of wood just fucking amazing ... oh and #ALLCAPSFORCARLOS
Agnesi is back!!! Ha wow! Lemmo on a break or something? I've not watched for a few weeks
Greatest acoustic guitar ever
That SJ is ridiculous. It sounds Huge!
