Built in 2006, this Jacobson Classical has seen countless hours on stage and in the practice hall, all the while opening up more and more fully, becoming louder and better defined with each successful performance. Now, a decade later this Classical has graduated from firecracker to mortar shell: the sheer volume is impressive, especially considering the Cedar top and Indian Rosewood body!

The voice is expansive and expressive, with a quick response and trebles that absolutely shimmer. With the oil-finished neck, this Jacobson feels familiar as on old friend in your hands, and has a glass-smooth setup that makes blazing fast passages a breeze. Sometimes there’s a faint line between a guitar which has been played in and one which hasn’t, but this 2006 Jacobson doesn’t subscribe to that at all: the voice has an easy richness and clarity to it that we’d normally expect only on a guitar twice its age. Looking for that delightfully opened-up voice with all the trimmings of projection, sustain, and playability? Look no further: your dream date has arrived.

This Paul Jacobson classical has the quintessential Spanish tone: clear and even. The combination of bold, resonant Brazilian Rosewood and strong, articulate European Spruce is phenomenal, and clearly demonstrates why the two are industry favorites. Craftsmanship of this level is not often achieved; every detail has been been executed impeccably. The playability is perfect for the concert musician with string spacing perfect for your left hand.

This is a brilliant guitar that transports the player back to the age of Segovia, rich and vibrant, and comes wrapped up in a Hoffee flight case for maximum protection.
