Sometimes good things come in small packages. This is certainly the case with this little parlour. With a beautiful Amara Ebony / Spalted Mango back, and a solid spruce top, this guitar is a bit of a beauty. It plays nicely too, well made for bluesy numbers with an extended mid range and not a lot of a low end. The slotted headstock looks the part too.
A lot of guitars can look very similar from the front. The real test for an instruments cosmetic is when you turn them round and look at the back. Inspired by Italian marquetry techniques, the Java guitars have an Amara Ebony back and sides with a contrasting strip of Spalted Mango timber defining the back of the instrument and making the Java series really stand out from the crowd.
