Player Reviews:

"This is a bold and beautiful Jumbo Hayride model from Julius Borges. He makes very few guitars these days so any Borges is rare and collectible and of course extremely playable. The minute I grabbed this guitar I channeled Rev. Gary Davis and felt right at home on this guitar. It has an amazing voice for blues, rock and any style where attitude is required." - Paul Heumiller

"This really feels and sounds like an old 1950's Gibson J-185 with the shorter scale length and the jumbo maple body. Great for strumming those old classic songs." - Al Petteway
