Prototype #1. "J-35 style" guitar. Mahogany back and sides, choice Sitka Spruce top. 24 3/4" scale length. Sunburst finish. Spruce top is finished with french-polished Shellac, with nitro-cellulose lacquer on remainder of guitar. Very good sound. Strong attack, full timbre, great projection. This guitar has a very "authentic" dry wood sound, that distinctly reminds you of the old original J-35's.
