❌SOLD❌ Sergei de Jonge Jazz Nylon

This stunning Jazz-Nylon model is a perfect example of Mr. de Jonge’s intelligent  implementation of some of the most important advances in guitar design.  The negative neck angle affords a more efficient string angle coming off the bridge, as well as allowing a suspended fingerboard extension which frees up more of the top to vibrate.  The offset soundholes also give a more efficient use of the top (witness the amount of useable top above the bridge). The side port of course, allows the player to hear a much better representation of the true tone of his instrument.  Sergei’s own neck angle adjustment is a lesson in simplicity,  allowing the player to easily adjust his string height without lowering his saddle! All structural features aside,  this stunning Bearclaw figured Engelmann spruce top in conjunction with a magnificent set of Brazilian rosewood back & sides and of course the instinct & skill of a man who has been building some of the world’s finest instruments for over 30 years … combine to create this “crossover” style jazz nylon string with all of the tonal nuance,  crisp articulation and sonic complexity of a fine concert grade classical instrument!
