Jim Olson and James Taylor—need we say more? The original JT Signature
guitars came out in 2002, a limited run of 100 standard and 20 special
edition models that are now very hard to find. The series was revived
again in 2017, and the "Clone" JTs like this one sport the same
tonewoods, feel and voicing of those earlier models. Jim paired cedar
and Indian rosewood, a perfect combo for a soulful fingerstyle master
like James. It's lightweight and effortlessly responsive, delivering up
those shimmering arpeggios with perfect ease. The abalone purfling,
rosette and backstrip, and the MOP bird fretboard inlays add a beautiful
touch, and an L.R. Baggs Element pickup comes pre-installed.
