Ideal for experienced players looking to build on their skills, the Grand J-16E 12 String is a full-bodied, muscular guitar that generates well-balanced harmonics with a strong, solid low end. Martin has crafted it in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, with East Indian rosewood back and sides and a Spruce top, so this powerhouse looks as good as it sounds. Martin also added scalloped X-bracing to create beautifully resonant tone that fills the room even when unplugged. And, while playing a 12 string can be challenging, our high-performance taper neck makes this one comfortable-playing, big-sounding guitar.
