Epiphone releases two magnificent jumbo shaped acoustic-electric guitars: Joan Sebastian Sonador and Joan Sebastian Triunfadora.
Epiphone is known for high quality instruments with reasonable price tags and master craftsmanship. This time, the focus is on two exceptional acoustic-electric models from Super Jumbo series, the Joan Sebastian Sonador and Joan Sebastian Triunfadora. Super Jumbo series is based on Gibson`s Jumbo shaped guitars, but with moderate price policy. Both models come with solid tonewoods and rock solid sound. Epiphone joined together with Joan Sebastian, eleven time Grammy winner and probably Mexico`s most popular singer-songwriter to bring guitars which represent Joan`s life philosophy which consists of three core beliefs: faith, love and luck.

Faith, love and luck and dreams are as important parts of this guitar as it`s solid tonewoods, high quality hardware and great sound. The Joan Sebastian Sonador is slightly smaller than a regular Jumbo, but retains all of it`s power. Versatility is another ace up the sleeve of this beauty. It fantastically supports both powerful chord strumming and delicate finger picking. It`s deep cutaway gives easy access even to the highest frets.
Joan Sebastian Sonador comes with solid sitka spruce top and solid Mahogany back and sides wrapped in gorgeous Jumbo shape. Inspired by Gibson`s J-185, this model follows it`s line and delivers as powerful tone as Gibson`s legend. Upon the flat glossy top sits mustache shaped rosewood bridge with plastic saddle and horse shoe inlays on both sides. It is reliable and keeps the strings in pitch perfect tuning. Under the bridge a piezo pickup is placed and is combined with AT-3000 preamp which features master volume and high and low eq sliders.
Sonador has solid mahogany neck with Slim Taper D contour which enables players to reach high frets with ease, while at the same time offering enough grip for rhythm chord strumming. This dovetail joined neck also features a rosewood fingerboard with 20 medium jumbo frets and dot inlays. The headstock has six tuners three-a-side configuration and beautiful cross, heart and horse shoe pearl inlays in vertical arrangement to denote Joan Sebastian`s beliefs and guiding lights through his life, the faith, the love and the luck. Other features on this model include: PVC binding, 1.725" nut width, 14" fingerboard radius, synthetic bone nut, die-cast nickel tuners and premium urethane finish.
