This Olson has an extra helping of articulation and expressiveness that makes it a handsome companion for a wide range of styles. Of course it’s excellent for fingerstyle, but it also holds up well under a flatpick. Great note separation across the registers, with a top end that’s got extra oomph and glassiness. This 2016 Olson SJ Cutaway comes with Jim’s dove inlays along the fingerboard, Indian Rosewood body with Cedar top, and an L.R. Baggs LB6 pickup. Ready for a vibrant, energetic IR/Cedar Olson? It’s only a strum away.

Here’s an additional demo of this beauty: https://youtu.be/XgGGr_Vb_tw.

A lovely SJ from Jim Olson in Indian Rosewood and Cedar! Michael Keller first turned Jim onto Cedar tops, and he's never looked back. This is the classic Olson sound for days.
Dressed up with doves and added Abalone trim, this 2016 Olson is gorgeous for both eyes and ears.
