Gibson has brought back its Songwriter Recording Artist series of acoustic guitars with two hand-crafted instruments that “elevate one of Gibson’s most beloved modern designs”.
These square-shouldered modern dreadnoughts were first introduced in the 1990s and have been in and out of the fray since. Here, the Songwriter Recording Artist and Songwriter Recording Artist EC pick up the torch where their predecessors left off.
The vintage-modern balance is present and correct. Hand-built at Gibson’s Bozeman, Montana facility, these instruments are said to deliver “exceptional studio clarity, stage-ready reliability, and the unmistakable depth and richness of Gibson acoustic tone”.

Partnered with those aforementioned tonewoods, which nod to Gibson’s 1936 Advanced Jumbo acoustic design, the guitars deliver a “warm, balanced” sound full of “rich overtones”.
They’re built to a 25.5” scale length, and share smooth, bound ebony fretboards, mother-of-pearl diamond eye inlays, and a compound dovetail neck joint. These are secured with hot hide glue for a bold resonance.

It follows a busy year for Gibson in acoustics in 2025. A downsized, single-cut take on the SJ-200, its hand-crafted but affordable Acoustic Specials, and the return of its Les Paul acoustic hybrid were among the highlights.
