Takamine JJ325SRC John Jorgenson Guitar | Artist Series

Takamine “John Jorgenson” Artist Series JJ325SRC Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar — Red Stain Gloss Finish

Designed in collaboration with one of the world’s most versatile guitarists, John Jorgenson, the Takamine JJ325SRC embodies the perfect fusion of tone, flexibility, and stage-ready performance. Jorgenson’s genre-spanning career — from the fiery leads of The Hellecasters to the gypsy-jazz finesse of Django-inspired performances and tours with legends like Elton John, Bob Dylan, and Bonnie Raitt — demanded an instrument capable of adapting to any musical landscape.

This dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar features a solid Sitka Spruce top paired with Wonder Rosewood back and sides, producing exceptional projection, warmth, and clarity across the tonal spectrum. The elegant ivory-bound body and neck, JJ inlay at the 12th fret, and gloss red stain finish create a distinctive visual identity instantly recognisable on any stage.

At its core, the CTF-2N preamp system and Palathetic under-saddle pickup deliver natural, articulate amplified tone with a wide dynamic range. The system includes a built-in chromatic tuner, ensuring precise performance in any environment. Gold tuners with ivory buttons complete the premium aesthetic while providing tuning stability and reliability.

Originally inspired by Jorgenson’s own red-stained EF325SRCA and evolving through decades of collaboration, the JJ325SRC stands as both a tribute to his artistry and a professional-grade instrument built for today’s performers.
