Peerless 12-String Tone

With a solid Sitka spruce top and solid flame maple back and sides, the J-185 12-String pumps out the quintessential 12-string sound. The jumbo body´s airy tonechamber generates ringing chime and sustain. The wider string spacing gives single notes and chords a jangly shimmer.

Shape your amplified sound with the pickup´s volume and tone controls, then plug into an amp or mixer and lay down recordings or perform on stage. Versatile and playable, this 12-string excels in any musical scenario.
