Guild Jumbo Junior Reserve Maple

Allmänt

While the dreadnought acoustic shape is probably the best known, the jumbo is an undeniable icon in its own right. The exaggerated curves of the body are just as striking as the amount of volume they're able to produce - the downside here is that they can get pretty big. To make the size a little more manageable, Guild introduce the slightly-shrunken-jumbo form of the Junior Reserve. This is definitely still a jumbo model - just a little bit smaller. So, the resonance is a little more comfortable to handle, and since the scale length has also been shaved down a touch (23.75-inches), it's also a generally more comfortable playing experience. The eased tension also means that a standard set of strings have some more give.

The Jumbo Junior: Senior Quality

While this is the Junior model, it's definitely been developed for grown-up players. The back and sides are made of flamed maple, which not only looks stunning, but provides an incredible tonal transparency and solid sound projection, while a solid sitka spruce top finishes this with definition and rich overtones. All of this is amplified with a natural feeling warmth by the integrated Fishman Sonitone GT-1 preamp system.
