Model J16

The Model J16 is my largest body guitar and is inspired by the Gibson J45/AJ. This guitar is for those players requiring the huge sound often associated with a dreadnought or traditional jumbo guitar. It is especially suited for flatpicking. As with all of my guitars my aim is to maintain great tonal balance even as the sound gets really big!

Nice, full bass response and beautiful woods make this guitar a great pick for both strummers and pickers. The shape is different, yet very pleasing to the eye, and that’s a hard thing to achieve when designing an acoustic guitar.
