❌SOLD❌ Martin JC16RE Aura Jumbo Cutaway Steel String, 2007

Built from 2006 to 2011, the Martin JC16RE sports a cutaway Jumbo body with Sitka Spruce top, Indian Rosewood for the back and sides, and a Fishman Aura pickup and preamp as stock.

The Martin JC16RE uses what is for that company an unusual body design, a Jumbo – slightly smaller than a Dreadnought in some dimensions, and larger than an OM or 000 in virtually all body dimensions. The proportions are similar to a classical guitar, so these Jumbo models tend to have a more even tonal representation throughout the harmonic range, plus more volume.

This Martin JC16RE dates to 2007 and was built at the Martin plant in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. It pairs a Sitka Spruce top with Indian Rosewood for the back, sides and head plate, Mahogany for the body blocks and neck, and Ebony for the fingerboard and bridge. It is in overall good condition with a few dings and dents to the top, and light fret wear.

The original Martin hard shell case is included.
