Designed in collaboration with guitarist extraordinaire John Jorgenson. Since John’s mastery isn’t confined to a single musical genre, his main concern was sonic flexibility. The JJ325SRC dreadnought features a solid spruce top with bubinga back and sides. The guitar is voiced to cover a broad tonal spectrum with depth for power and a shimmering upper midrange for articulation and clarity and features a gloss red finish, JJ inlay at the 12th fret and gold tuners with ivory buttons on the keys. Includes Takamine’s CT4B II preamp system paired with the unique Palathetic™ under-saddle pickup for peerless amplified response. The highly acclaimed CT4B II preamp system with three-band EQ, volume control and built-in tuner.
