J-10 Jumbo
This J-10 Jumbo is built from an exceptional bookmatched set of Golden European Flame Maple, the top is even-grained European Spruce. The rosette is Abalone, sandwiched between black and white fiber. The purfling is herringbone and Solid Ebony binding. The back features rosewood binding. The Jumbo is another beautifully appointed instrument with incredible balance and note separation.
This is a concert size Jumbo that will fill the room with sound. Caveat emptor: this model was built to a Women’s-specific design which features a more narrow neck for easier playing with smaller fingers. I have spent a lot of time playing this guitar and despite my large hands it plays very well for me. I love this guitar and you will too!
