Taylor Guitars LKSM Leo Kottke Signature Model Jumbo 12 String ...
The Jumbo delievers the extra-deep resonance and volume that come with larger sound chamber together with its own signature subtleties. With a huge presence, the Jumbo is perfectly suited for aggressive strumming.
A Venitian cutaway in the Jumbo body allows better access to the upper frets. In the past, many players moving to acoustic guitars grew accustomed to the cutaways on their electric guitars, while others simply like the freedom of movement into the upper register that a cutaway allows. Now, cutaways are favored as much for their decorative appeal as for their function.
The top is made from Sitka Spruce, a dense, straight-grained wood that has the highest strength and elasticity-to-weight ratio among available tonewoods. It's these attributes that make Sitka Spruce an ideal material not only for soundboards, but also for internal bracing. The Sitka top will produce a tone slightly brighter tone than Engelmann Spruce.The back, sides, and neck are made from tropical American mahogany, which is supple enough to make excellent, responsive bodies while remaining sufficiently strong and stable. By pairing sitka spruce with mahogany, the tonal qualities get and extra punch to the Jumbos full-body tone.
