Jacobson instruments are famously hard to part with, and it is common to hear owners say their Jacobson is the one guitar they would never sell. That reputation is well earned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"465\" data-end=\"750\"\u003ePaul passed a little over a year ago, but his legacy lives on through his instruments and the generosity with which he shared his knowledge as a luthier. In his later years, nearing retirement, he built only a handful of guitars annually, making examples like this increasingly scarce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"752\" data-end=\"1174\"\u003eSonically and visually, this guitar is exactly what one hopes for from a Jacobson. The voice is refined and open, with thick, beautifully formed notes that bloom effortlessly. There is a sense of calm confidence to the sound, nothing forced, nothing exaggerated. Aesthetically, his distinctive head design and elegant plantilla give the instrument a timeless, understated presence that feels both personal and intentional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1176\" data-end=\"1324\"\u003eThis is a guitar made for players who value nuance, balance, and depth, the kind of instrument that quietly earns a permanent place in a collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1176\" data-end=\"1324\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eCurrently strung with \u003cstrong data-start=\"2865\" data-end=\"2886\"\u003eD’Addario XTC45FF\u003c\/strong\u003e, featuring carbon G and B strings paired with a nylon high tension first string, a setup that complements the guitar’s clarity and projection while preserving tonal color.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1326\" data-end=\"1329\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1331\" data-end=\"1347\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1348\" data-end=\"1557\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1348\" data-end=\"1366\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1350\" data-end=\"1366\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1350\" data-end=\"1358\"\u003eTop:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cedar\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1367\" data-end=\"1404\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1369\" data-end=\"1404\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1369\" data-end=\"1386\"\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indian Rosewood\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1405\" data-end=\"1423\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1407\" data-end=\"1423\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1407\" data-end=\"1416\"\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2002\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1424\" data-end=\"1451\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1426\" data-end=\"1451\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1426\" data-end=\"1444\"\u003eSerial Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e #255\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1452\" data-end=\"1479\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1454\" data-end=\"1479\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1454\" data-end=\"1471\"\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 650mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1480\" data-end=\"1505\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1482\" data-end=\"1505\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1482\" data-end=\"1496\"\u003eNut Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 52.5mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1506\" data-end=\"1533\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1508\" data-end=\"1533\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1508\" data-end=\"1524\"\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raised\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1534\" data-end=\"1557\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1536\" data-end=\"1557\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1536\" data-end=\"1547\"\u003eTuners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gilbert\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1559\" data-end=\"1562\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1564\" data-end=\"1577\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1578\" data-end=\"1842\"\u003eExcellent overall condition.
