Overview

The end of 1955 saw the beginning of prolific changes on the Southern Jumbo, going from 19 to 20 frets and employing a different top bracing method and pickguard shape. These guitars are still quite collectable when in great condition, but can be had for a bit less money than the 19-fret models
