JWJ Slope Shoulder Dreadnought All Honduras Mahogany Sunburst
- Product Code: 489
- Availability: Out Of Stock
We are incredibly proud to be the first and main stockists of this fabulous range of hand made guitars, created in Baschurch Shropshire by the talented one man team Rich Jones.With exceptional attention to detail, it's mindblowing to imagine how these guitars are brought into existence in a self made workshop at the end of his garden. Rich is a player as well as a highly skilled Luthier, which gives him an edge in regards to sound, tone and playablilty.
Each guitar has it's own unique wood selection, neck profile and finish, so you'll be sure to find something that inspires aesthetically as much as tonally.
All mahogany from tip to tale the JWJ Slope shoulder dreadnought has pressence and warmth. This guitar has a big voice and is in no way boomy or lacking in sparkle, as can sometimes be found with all mahogany constructions. The slightly asymmetrical 'A' profile neck, which is shallower on the higher strings, allows more finger reach and makes for a truly comfortable play.
