The Little CJ Blackwood is identical to the Little CJ OP except for its stunning solid Blackwood top and Blackwood back and sides. It also features a Mahogany neck, Ovangkol fingerboard, 23.5” (597mm) scale length, Fishman Presys II electronics and a gig bag. The arched back also enhances comfort for hours of playing as well as a V-shape neck profile to better fit smaller hands. Whether you want to take a compact yet great sounding acoustic to a camping trip or a local coffee house gig, the Little CJ Blackwood will provide the look, performance and flexibility to meet virtually any playing requirements.
Features
3/4 JUMBO BODY
The smaller size makes it ideal for the mobile musician or for the casual hobbyist who wants to take a good-sounding acoustic on vacation or business travel.
ALL-BLACKWOOD CONSTRUCTION
The all-blackwood body with a natural, open-pore finish of the Little CJ Blackwood ensures that this guitar will age as desired allowing the wood choice to resonate naturally. In terms of tonal quality, players will find that the all blackwood construction provides balanced dynamics, with ample bottom-end response that doesn’t inhibit the top-end.
BLACKWOOD BACK & SIDES
(ARCHED BACK)
Blackwood is like a combination of the low-mids of mahogany, the brightness of maple and the rich overtones of rosewood. This versatility makes blackwood stand out for both fingerstyle playing or strumming as well as being a perfect match for the Blackwood top.
