Though primarily known for its legendary dreadnought models, C.F. Martin also maintains a strong and popular line of jumbo-shaped models (just as Gibson features a prominent line of dreadnought-shaped guitars). The new J-40 (2018) is a part of the 2018 Standard series makeover, dubbed "Standard Reimagined". The "reimagined" J-40 comes in at $4,999.00 which puts it in the series` middle class. Main features include a non-cutaway jumbo body (solid East Indian rosewood back & sides, solid Sitka spruce top, Sitka spruce bracing, tortoise pickguard, antique white binding), genuine mahogany neck (modified low oval profile, 14th fret dovetail joint, gloss finish), 20-fret fingerboard made of ebony (1-3/4" bone nut, 25-2/5" scale, reduced hexagon inlays), ebony bridge, and gold-plated tuners.
