This is the first recording of my new Jmac dread. This one is Carpathian spruce with Peruvian walnut back and sides. The braces are Adirondack spruce. It's less than a week old so it's still green but it sounds pretty good I think.

Very nice Monk! I'll be getting my lefty Adi/Honduran RW OM from J in a few days. It has a new and very thin water based finish on it, and J seems to be really happy with the finish, now that it's assembled. The thin finish sounds like it really let's the woods sing! I also own a lefty Bear Claw Spruce/Cocobolo Dred of J's, and I'm very excited to get my hands on the new one!

@Leftyprs Thank you. I saw your guitar body when I went to pick this one up a few months ago. It looked great. Jim is a perfectionist so if he's happy with the finish it must be amazing. I have one with Nitro and one Water based. Both are thin. They get thinner with time too. We're lucky to get these guitars before Jim gets famous and raises hit rates. My two dreads are pretty special. Let me know when you get yours. I'd love to see and hear it.

I'm partial to small body guitars, but that dreadnaught has got to be one of the most incredible sounding guitars i've ever heard. I can't play well but I got guitar love. I never heard of jmac until I was on your channel one day. Nice bit of music and playing there.

Thanks a lot. Jmac is a local builder in Massachusetts. Great guitars and not too pricey either.

Another great song and guitar.
I love my beefy JMac ... I'm very happy to have found it through your videos.

Thanks Craig. I'm glad you're happy your Jmac. Both of mine are pretty awesome and different. He really knows how to build 'em.
