Sloped Dread
Patterned off the Southern Jumbo and J-45 shape of the vintage variety. With close to the same overall dimensions as a Traditional Dreadnaught, this body shape can provide the same amount of versatility and volume. With the rounded upper shoulder, it offers a slightly different look than the standard Dreadnaught. Some players prefer it for the less “boxy” look. This body shape is also available in a 25” short scale, which offers players of blues/folk music the more bass heavy rhythm sound they love from the iconic J-45 models.
