| Want closeups? - click on any image to enlarge | A new workshop, Nylon-strung ’Jazz’ model in Triple A Indian rosewood, with a Triple A cedar soundboard and cambered ebony fingerboard with 48mm nut width. While the model was initially designed as a stage instrument with good natural resistance to feedback, it has become popular as a crossover instrument with both steel string and classical players. 5 years ago the Jazz was revoiced by George Lowden and is now seen in various settings and either plugged-in via its Fishman Matrix preamp or being picked on a sofa.
