A Tribute to the 1936 Icon, Combining Vintage Luthiery and Modern Comfort

Inspired by the legendary 1936 Advanced Jumbo, this electro-acoustic combines the DNA of classic slope-shoulder models with current playability standards. Its "Heavy Aged" patina reproduces the aura of a well-played guitar, while the solid wood construction ensures deep and lasting resonance. A piece designed for vintage lovers who demand the reliability of a modern instrument.

Who Is It For, and Which Styles?

Versatile and responsive, it suits intermediate to expert guitarists seeking an expressive instrument for stage, studio, or songwriting. Contemporary folk, country, blues, acoustic rock, fingerstyle, or strong strumming: its response remains stable, with excellent dynamic control and comfortable playability across the entire neck.

Sound

The solid Sitka spruce top offers headroom and precise attack, ideal for heavy pick strokes as well as fingerpicking. The solid mahogany back and sides add woody mids, rounded lows, and smooth highs, creating a rich tone that opens up over time. The long 25.5" / 648 mm scale length increases string tension, projection, and sustain, while maintaining clear note definition. Plugged in, the LR Baggs VTC faithfully reproduces this palette with natural clarity and excellent feedback rejection.

Recommended Compatible Accessories
