Description
What makes this guitar special? This is a responsive jumbo with a classic look. The highlight of this guitar is its tone with robust but concise low end, smooth mid-range, crisp and clear top end and healthy volume ceiling. It features a solid Engelmann spruce top which is likely the reason for its responsive nature, dynamic, and volume. The cuts of rosewood used are straight and lustrous and add a nice visual dimension to its overall look. The appointments are simple and understated but perfectly fit a guitar with a such a surprising response for the price.
