I bought the identical guitar two weeks ago and I totally agree with everything that you said. 👍
Sounds great and looks beautiful🙂
I bought a black Sigma 'SG-9' 42 years ago in 1981 when i was 15. I still have it and I still love the big warm sound this guitar has. Now I'm thinking about buying the Sigma SG200.
I really like this grand jumbo model.
Sounds really good and looks great 👍
Sounded like some Fire Away from Chris Stapleton in the intro. Sounded great.
I have just bought this guitar. Waiting for it to arrive. I cannot wait, looks beautiful and sounds great
You will love it!
Considering buying one. What is your opinion 9 months in?
Great guitar. I have one. It's closer to the Gibson in tone than the epiphone super jumbos are. And still affordable. Gibson sj200 are beautiful, but horribly expensive. Worth the money. But evil expensive. Hoping to finally get one for my 40th in a couple of years.
GREAT vid, thanks, I'm after one of these from GuitarGuitar :)
I've just put $500 down on a new one and I'm going nuts waiting for next pay day .I walked into Manny's ready to purchase the Epiphone J200 but I tried the Sigma and it felt better in my hands sound seemed superior as well
3K cheaper than the gibson too! sounds amazing
You should try demoing the Sigma 300s that come with all solid wood construction.
I've got it's cheapy cousin,gjm sge, like the studio version , 2nd hand £150, bought it as a beater for camping primarily, but I love it - slim comfy neck for my child like little hands and a crisp loud tone (tho a bit spongy compared to yours) my Yairi has remained i its case for months now - w live in the golden age of astonishingly good cheap guitars and gibson/martin/taylor are going to be in trouble shortly I think
Nice video bro
I bought a Gibson J 45 5 years ago and I wonder if it was worth... I should have tried this one..
yeaaa very good video
Thank you!
What a classy guitar!
Thank you
Hey mate, could you do a review of this one? SGJA-SG200+ LIMITED EDITION. Btw, the one you're reviewing this time, does it have great projection in the room? Thanks.
Nice guitar my friend 😁😁😁🙂🙂👍👍👍
Thank you
I SOOOO want one of these. Hard to come by here in the U.S.
Hello,
SGJA or GJA model tested ?
Thanks
Such a good guitar that I bought one myself.
Oh yeah!! I love it!
@@mattriffmaster
How many this guitar?
1500 euros?
@@mattriffmaster
This guitar is the Sigma GJA - SG200+?
Or where can i get one?
Randy Lewis How’s the action on this one?
Where can I get a lefty?
Rip that Fishman system out of it and install a LR Baggs Anthem
Are they out of production? I cant find them
Hi Matt , lovely sound and looking acoustic guitar , Great video Matt , do you use your great Blackstar amp for your Sigma or you've got a acoustic amp ?
I don’t use any amps no I either mix up to record or go direct into my interface
yes i see , cool Matt direct from the mic
I've had one of these for a couple of months and it's beautiful to look at but more importantly it's beautiful to hear. I also have an Epiphone Hummingbird that sounds good too but unfortunately the Sigma sounds better in comparison. One thing that the Hummingbird has over it is the way it plays, my local tech Leo did a fantastic job on setting them both up and it plays like a Les Paul so I guess I can't have it all.
got one some months ago. you won´t find an acoustic guitar in that price range as good as this one. it´s an amazing instrument compared to the price. i even like it more than my gibson j-45 which is also a great acoustic guitar.
Hi @atomic did you have issues setting the action right on this acoustic
@@seanmitchell14 plugged or unplugged?
Well it's not a bad guitar, but, and I'm not trying to discredit Chinese build guitars, in that price range I would rather look at spending few more bucks and buy a Martin Road series. All solid wood construction with the same pickup. I've heard guys complain that this exact Sigma's have intonation issues. It's seldom that you get a pretty good jumbo body guitar copy. In this instance I would go for the Epiphone EJ200. Also laminate back and sides but much cheaper. Then you'll compare apples with apples. Since Sigma and Martin ended their partnership, the brand started lacking in good quality and value I would say. Sigma startes basically copying Gibsons (Hummingbird, J45 and J200) and Taylor with the Sigma modern series. Their Martin based guitars were awesome when they had their collaboration.
@@wimpieduplooy4130 epiphone ej200 guitars are terrible sounding compared to the recent sigma sg 200 made in china. its even a very big difference in quality.
@@atomic7731 I own a Sigma 000MR-4, brilliant quality, brilliant preamp. And I also have a Gibson J15. Would be nice to compare the Sigma 45 to the Gibson J45 too. Ja I must say I like the estetics of the Sigma SG200. Don't like the Epiphone EJ200 in all honesty, especially the headstock. The Sigma SG200 I'm actually considering to buy, because the Gibson J200 is very expensive, even the Gibson Studio J200 is over $2000 USD. So ja the Sigma SG200 is definitely an option for me. My only concern is intonation issues. But until I haven't played one I can't make a proper decision I guess.
“Stunnin acoustic”
Standard strings?
Just ordered one from my local music store, after watching many review videos you've made me take the plunge Matt,
can't wait!!!!!!!!!!! What gauge strings are you using Matt beautiful tone through the 57.
Hey what do you think of your sigma guitar?
yo matt. what if u compared the HT and the series 100 to the tvp and had the same settings on the amps?
I’ve got something similar planned
interesting
Can you do a vid of the SGJA-SG200+ LIMITED EDITION as well ??
All solid Guitar with adironack top and Flame Maple Back and Sides!!!
yes please !!!!!
hi there.Do you know what the difference is between the sg200 and sg200+ .The plus is all solid? thanks in advance
William Yale the “ + “ stands for the Version with pickup.
GJA is laminated b&s and SGJA stands for solid b&s... but that is just a limited run with only 48 pieces...
@@dominikschaffer my sg200 has a pickup and is not a sg200+
Fretboards are different woods
How’s the action? The Epiphone versions action is ridiculously high.. Thinking of getting this but high action could be a deal breaker
Came set up perfectly mate
Have you changed the strings? I think the stock string are D´Addario EXP16 and i guess they work the best for this guitar...
Straight away ernie ball all the way
@@mattriffmaster Ive changed to ernie ball earthwood phosphor bronze gauge 12 and it sounds too bright and tiny. The original strings were more darker, lower and mellow sounding which i liked but they were beaten up in the guitar store. Guess ill swap it back to D´Addario EXP16 or I will try same as yours, the paradigm. How do you compare the two?
Have you noticed any dead notes higher up the fretboard, I have one on mine 8th fret on the A string and same note 12th fret on the low E string it's driving me mad.
Your comment was 5 months ago. Just curious to see if you done anything about these dead notes?
I got a replacement, the truss rod couldn't move, the new guitar is fine I did replace the nut and bridge pins with tusq all good now.
Is that good? I'm planning to get my first grand jumbo. How it's compared to other competitor around that price?
I love it it’s amazing! Feels great and huge tone!
Hi. How is its sound volume? Is it loud enough for a $1000 jumbo guitar standard? Thanks.
Hey! The sound and tone this thing puts out is amazing! And huge!! Well worth the money! Best acoustic I’ve played since I started playing 14years who! Highly recommend !
@@mattriffmaster Thank u.
@@mattriffmaster Hi again. Can I ask again? Is your Sigma made in China? Thanks.
I cant make a decision. This one or a Gibson or Martin. I think its expensive for a chinese guitar. When you can get a all solid Gibson or Martin for the same price. But this guitar is the most beautiful and it sounds great. I let myself fool by the brands.
The martin and gibson in this prince range are shit. This Sigma is conpatible with 2000-3000 price range gibsons. Believe me
@@darianoechslermgp exactly. no offense to Martin but i´ve listened a lot to the expensive Martin guitars, and i must say that there is a lot of hype. I don´t think that most of the Martins that cost a few grand are nearly worth it. All tho they are good but like i say, a lot of hype
@@postiticeland8783 I have the Martin OM John Mayer which sounds incredible but its 4.5k. Ive played some Martins in the 1500-2000$ Range and they arent good at all. Same with Gibson.
@@darianoechslermgp hey man :) nice that i'm not the only one that thinks Martin is a ripoff!
Mine is now back at the dealers, the truss rod is not moving ive waited 3 weeks now still no contact from them, not happy at all not a cheap guitar.
Ah no that sucks!! Hmm I hope you hear back! It’s such a good guitar
Is that the new Sigma logo on the headstock? Do you know since when they changed it?
No idea my friend that’s the only one I’ve known
Oh ok, thank you! It used to be the same as the Martin logo.
The old 70s sigmas have the same headstock logo
Martin did start a company in east, to produce more afordable Martin Guitars in the 70s. The Name: Sigma. That is the reason, why the logo was like the Martin logo. Years later they sold the company to a dealing company from munich Bavaria with the name AMI. Since AMI produced Gibson like guitars too, Martin didnt alow AMI to use the Martin like Logo anymore. I think it was 2016.
What strings do you use on this guitar. Is it the ones that it comes with? D'addario I believe...
I switched the strings out straight away , currently I have the ernie ball phosphor bronze paradigm strings
@@mattriffmaster
I don't seem too keen on the ones That came with it. They seem a but on the heavy side. Maybe just personal preference. Thanks tho
(I also prefer EB) 👍
No worries bro!
Hi did you have to set the guitar up much. just wondering if you had an issues on the G string 9th fret when bending the string to 11. Did it cause any buzzing noise.
@@mattriffmaster the problem that I've got, don't get me wrong it's a beautiful guitar, is the intonation of this model. And I can hear it slightly in your video. Don't know if its because of the neck and nut profile used in combination with the bridge profile. I would, personally, think the Epiphone EJ200 is bit better than the Sigma SG200. I would like to hear the J45 version from Sigma as well. The Fishman Sonitone sounds too much on the mid range for me. Personally I think the sonitone aren't the best pickup for a Jumbo body than for instance with a dread or OM/000 shape guitar. But that's just my pure objective observation and criticism. With regards to your review, great stuff, you really did a great job because I wouldn't have been able to make these observations. Do a review on the Sigma Modern Series as well, if you haven't already. Great review.
Where can I buy a sigma guitar? I’m from Texas, USA
Should be able to find them online mate
Is it better than Epiphone J 200 SCE?
Oh yes
Looks like no other guitar ever made before......
Beautiful guitar and great sound acoustically... That pickup is terrible though
I'd yank it out and put a K and K mini western in it.
@@gutbucket260 yep, or better still an LR Baggs Anthem!
Don't know why they bother putting Fishmans in these these. Unnecessary added cost for something that doesn't produce a remotely usable sound. Have to rip it out and put something like a Lyric in instead anyways if you actually plan on plugging in. Would rather just save on the sticker price.
Litteraly every review should start with price I don't understand..
@Short For A Stormtrooper Big For Your Mom don't want to waste 10 min
Ligma sg200
(Ok i know that wasn't very mature)
Ligma?
Ligma Balls
China made or korea?
is this guitar made in China?
yes!
Fishman sonitone. 👎
Il admit the pick up isn’t great but the guitar itself is amazing and sounds great!
I have used lr baggs anthem and various other high end pickups but I have to say for live playing the sonitone cuts through where as the baggs can get lost! Recording it direct is a different story though, it sounds plasticy! This is perfect gigging guitar! Sounds and looks amazing! I just wish it had solid back and sides but to be fair doesn't make massive difference to the sound!
@@Whitty43 Oh, ther is a full solid model: SGJA SG200 It is round €1500.-- And the full solid makes a difference.
Guitar - great. Pickup - meh.
sounds like it needs tuning tbh
Being in tune is overrated
