Some things in life simply don’t go out of vogue and jazz and blues are two of those things. So we simply wanted to make a guitar line dedicated to these genres, designed from the ground up in order for us to pay special attention to tone, detail and of course quality.
Our J&B flat tops are vintage all the way, with back shifted, scalloped bracing and traditional rosewood bridges. The neck profile has a soft V profile and string spacing is tailored towards fingerpicking. Tonally these guitars harbor the compression usually associated with smaller bodied guitars, but due to our bracing design they are a little more “Hi-Fi” and dynamic for a more modern style projection.
