Fresh setup and singing! What better way to experience the joy of an opened up instrument than this 1999 Olson SJ? Cedar over Indian Rosewood with cutaway and upgraded Orpheum position markers, L.R. Baggs Element VTS pickup, and brand new stainless steel frets—this Olson plays like grass-fed butter, with a voice to match. It’s a natural choice for fingerestyle; takes well to strumming as well. As Paul would say, this one’s got gears. And everything comes wrapped up in a custom Calton case for safety on those rare moments you won’t have this Olson in hand.
