James DePrato Performs "Kicky" and "Smile" on a '93 Gibson J-200 VS Jumbo

James DePrato pairs contrasting tunes—Jerry Reed’s rollicking instrumental “Kicky” and Charlie Chaplin’s wistful “Smile” from the classic film Hard Times—in a virtuoso display on this 1993 Gibson J-200 VS, one of 27 guitars offered in the Acoustic Guitar Auction that begins May 13, 2021. A great example of the "King of the Flat-tops," the iconic Gibson model first issued in 1937. The VS designation refers to the Vintage Sunburst finish. Classic sound and excellent condition; the ding near the back center stripe is the only visible blemish.
