Sound Pure's Take
This guitar has such a big sound, you might not even need the pickup to be heard. On the other hand, the pickup sounds so good, you might never want to play this guitar by itself. What a great problem to have! This deep bodied 16" solid carved spruce archtop is a guitarist's guitar, with excellent tone, impeccable playability, and refined aesthetics. If you're serious about jazz or want to be serious about jazz, then here's a serious guitar for you!
