Scharpach Jumbo (steel string)

The Jumbo is built in the traditional American style. The design follows the shapes of traditional instruments like Guild or the old Gibson Style acoustics. This guitar produces a rich, powerful, yet mellow tone. The basses are strong and clear, while the treble strings still have a "punch" even in the higher positions.

The guitar can be ordered in several materials. For the top you can choose cedar or white spruce, the sides and back can have Indian rosewood, Brazilian rosewood or Honduras mahogany. The standard model has no cutaway but can be ordered with a sharp cutaway as well.

Standard on the original, shaped headstock are hand polished gold-plated Schaller machines.
