The Circle Strings Small Jumbo is a masterful study in balance, power, and refinement. With its broad lower bout, graceful curves, and exceptionally responsive construction, it offers much of the depth and authority of a larger instrument while preserving the immediacy, articulation, and comfort that make a great Small Jumbo so versatile. Its voice is expansive without becoming overwhelming, delivering a rich bass response, a colorful and present midrange, and clear, singing trebles that remain beautifully defined across the entire fingerboard.

At its heart is an extraordinary Old Growth Vintage Sitka Spruce top. Seasoned by time and selected for its strength and musical potential, this rare spruce gives the guitar tremendous responsiveness, headroom, and tonal complexity. Scalloped Adirondack Spruce tone bars allow the top to move freely while maintaining focus, producing a sound that is open, powerful, and remarkably alive. A light touch draws out warmth and intimate detail, while stronger playing releases impressive volume without sacrificing clarity or balance.

The Quilted Japanese Tochi back and sides are visually breathtaking. Pale and luminous, the wood is covered in deep horizontal figure that appears to ripple like silk beneath the gloss nitrocellulose finish. Its dramatic movement gives the guitar an almost three dimensional appearance, shifting beautifully as light travels across its surface. Tonally, the Tochi contributes a lively and immediate response with excellent projection and definition, complementing the mature warmth and complexity of the Old Growth Sitka top.

Cocobolo binding and a matching backstrip provide a rich, dark frame around the light colored Tochi, emphasizing the elegant outline of the Small Jumbo body. Black, white, black, maple, black, white, and black top purfling adds fine visual detail, while the vivid Green Rope rosette introduces a subtle flash of color. A Cocobolo headstock veneer continues the warm wood theme, while the Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard is tastefully appointed with small Mother of Pearl position dots. Gold Waverly tuning machines provide precise operation and an elegant finishing touch.

The Old Growth Honduran Mahogany neck is joined to the body with a bolt on mortise and tenon construction and finished in smooth satin nitrocellulose for an effortless playing feel. Its 25.4 inch scale provides familiar tension and excellent projection, while the 1 3/4 inch bone nut and 2 1/4 inch bridge spacing create a comfortable platform for fingerstyle playing, flatpicking, and expansive chord work. A Brazilian Rosewood bridge, bone saddle, and bone bridge pins complete the responsive acoustic system.

Showcased at the 2026 Fretboard Summit, this Circle Strings Small Jumbo is a remarkable union of rare materials, refined craftsmanship, and deeply expressive sound. It has the power to fill a room, the sensitivity to capture the smallest nuance, and the tonal balance to excel in nearly any musical setting. Weighing just 3 pounds 14 ounces and accompanied by a TKL hard shell case, it is an exceptionally light, responsive, and inspiring modern acoustic guitar.
