A big fingerstyle guitar
Thompson Jumbo

Ted Thompson is a Canadian builder who manages to turn out a surprisingly large number of consistently fine sounding guitars at remarkably reasonable prices. In fact, when we received our first Thompsons at Gryphon some years ago, we called Ted and said, "We'll take all you can make." He told me that all his dealers had said the same thing!

This 17" mahogany cutaway jumbo is an extra good sounding fingerstyle guitar for players who want some real solidity in the bass with good projection at the high end.
