Description
The Martin J-16E Grand Jumbo - 1935 Sunburst introduces a bold new voice to the refreshed 16 Series, pairing standout vintage styling with the huge, room-filling sound of a jumbo body. Built for strummers, rhythm players, and anyone who wants maximum projection and presence, this model combines a classic 1935 Sunburst finish with the deep bass and sparkling highs that make a Grand Jumbo such an inspiring instrument.
Its gloss spruce top and satin East Indian rosewood back and sides produce rich overtones, articulate highs, and a powerful low end that cuts through any mix with authority. The large J-14 fret body delivers thunderous volume while scalloped X-bracing enhances sustain and resonance for a full, dynamic response. L.R. Baggs Element electronics faithfully capture the guitar's natural character, making it equally at home on stage or in the studio.
The satin-finished select hardwood neck features Martin's Modified Low Oval profile and is paired with an ebony fingerboard accented by classic Style 28 inlays. A faux tortoise pickguard, nickel open-gear tuners, and an ebony bridge complete the vintage-inspired aesthetic. We think this is an outstanding choice for players who want jumbo projection with timeless Martin character.
