Neck Jumbo

Questions about the jumbo acoustic guitar?

I'm going to buy a guitar to start playing again, but I do not have much money. I've never played a jumbo before, only a fear. Jumbos I know a little bit different, and the body style is different. the neck is wider than the fear, or electric.

In general, body size and neck size are not related. It depends on choices made by the individual manufacturer. In addition, there are two components to the size of the neck: the neck profile and width of the neck at the nut. You can have a large neck with a 1 5 / 8 "hose off and you can also have a thin neck with a low profile 1 3 / 4 "neck width. Just because it's a jumbo does not have implications for the profile and the width of the neck. You will see for yourself.
