Jumbo Acoustic Guitars

When it comes to acoustic guitars, the Jumbo lives up to its name. With its deep body, curvy shape, and powerful projection, this is the ultimate choice for bold strummers and singer-songwriters who need to cut through the mix.
Originally crafted by Gibson in the 1930s to rival Martin’s dreadnought, the jumbo offers a louder, richer sound with a warm low-end and a crisp, clear top-end—often enhanced by tonewood pairings like Spruce and Maple. This makes it a favourite in folk, country, and rock, where power and presence are key.

Compared to a dreadnought, the jumbo has a wider lower bout and a tighter waist, creating more resonance while maintaining clarity. However, its large size means it thrives under a heavy hand - perfect for rhythm players but less suited for delicate fingerpicking.

Our selection includes top brands like Gibson, Taylor, Gretsch, Faith, and Alvarez, each bringing their own take on this legendary design. Alvarez have some highly respected Jumbo guitars with excellent value, perfect for taking a dip into the world of Jumbos.
