Collings SJ Series | SJ Small Jumbo
An Astounding Acoustic Of The Highest Class - Just Look At The Back To See The Quality
If you love acoustic guitars then this one is sure to stop you in your tracks. Collings are amongst the absolute pinnacle of guitar builders and their acoustic instruments are in the hands of the true professionals for a reason. Just look at that beautiful dark ebony fingerboard with real pearl inlays but most staggeringly the quality and beauty of the European maple used for the neck, back and sides. The aesthetic is second-to-none and this hopefully gives you an idea of the quality of the tone also.
The Collings SJ (small jumbo) instruments have a narrow waist and wide lower bout which provides articulate bass with an enhanced presence in the midrange and treble. Basically: excellent overall tonal balance.
This really is an astounding acoustic of the highest class.

If you love acoustic guitars then this one is sure to stop you in your tracks. Collings are amongst the absolute pinnacle of guitar builders and their acoustic instruments are in the hands of the true professionals for a reason. Just look at that beautiful dark ebony fingerboard with real pearl inlays but most staggeringly the quality and beauty of the European maple used for the neck, back and sides. The aesthetic is second-to-none and this hopefully gives you an idea of the quality of the tone also.
The Collings SJ (small jumbo) instruments have a narrow waist and wide lower bout which provides articulate bass with an enhanced presence in the midrange and treble. Basically: excellent overall tonal balance.
Although the 16" lower bout is slightly wider than a dreadnought, and the sides almost as deep, the tight curve at the waist creates in a very different sound chamber. This particular SJ, being the maple variant, has a more pronounced midrange response when compared to a dreadnought. Players looking for the bass and overall volume of a large guitar, but with lots of treble clarity and midrange crunch, will find just what they need in this curvaceous SJ.
