PJD St. John Apprentice Aged Sunburst

Description

PJD Guitars are handcrafted by Leigh Dovey and his team at their impressive workshop in York, UK. PJD specialise in a range of classically inspired, beautifully built premium quality instruments, made with the finest woods and components. These are professional grade guitars built to perform.

The St John Apprentice is a stripped down but refined rocker with a single hand wound humbucker.  At around 6lbs you can play this guitar for hours! The Apprentice features a classic offset body made from lightweight obeche in a gloss nitro finish which has been subtly aged to give the guitar a fabulous played-in feel. The neck is made from roasted maple, with a custom neck profile based on a standard “C” shape. The neck has a rounder feeling thickness at the nut, with the profile flattening out as you go up the neck. It’s a profile that works brilliantly with the compound radius fretboard.. The St. John Apprentice is supplied with a premium gigbag and PJD certificate of authenticity.
