  • Description: No, this is not Brazilian rosewood (although it certainly looks like it)! The Collings Jumbo, or CJ, is Collings' version of the classic slope-shouldered dreadnought, a shape that has enjoyed renewed popularity in recent years. While the CJ is similar in width and depth to the traditional dreadnought, it has a distinctly different tone. Despite its large size this model works well with the optional shorter string scale, resulting in a somewhat percussive bottom end ideal for acoustic blues or other styles that benefit from a more controlled bass response. Features Include: Select Sitka spruce East Indian rosewood back and sides Pre-war scalloped bracing Grained ivoroid binding with black/white purfling Cross-cut grained ivoroid and wood nitrate strip rosette Multi-color mosaic backstrip Tortoise-style pickguard High gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish Mahogany Neck Double-bound fingerboard and peghead Inlaid Collings Logo Ebony fingerboard and bridge Mother-of-Dot fingerboard inlays Fully adjustable truss rod Bone nut and drop-in saddle Ebony bridge pins and end pin Nickel Waverly tuners
