A Big, Bold Jumbo From Fender

Fender's CJ-290S acoustic guitar is a cannon. This beautifully appointed - and affordable - jumbo sports a solid spruce top and stunning flame maple back and sides that join forces to give you amazing balance and projection - and a jaw-dropping low end. The satisfying, amazingly playable maple neck is capped with a rosewood fingerboard, and FENDER® has loaded up the CJ-290S with premium appointments you'll appreciate, such as a tortoise shell pickguard, abalone rosette, and gold hardware. Give your music a big voice with the Fender CJ-290S.

Fender CJ-290S Jumbo Acoustic Guitar at a Glance:
  • Great playability and tone, premium appointments
  • Get ready for big, bold tone
  • Scalloped X bracing for enhanced projection and balance

Great playability and tone, premium appointments
Fender has lavished the CJ-290S with great tonewoods and premium appointments - the net result of which, for you, is amazing playability and tone. The beauty is in the details you see - like the CJ-290S's tortoise shell pickguard, abalone rosette, gold hardware, and Ivoroid binding; and even the ones you don't see, such as the solid spruce top's quartersawn scalloped X bracing and the factory-mounted forward strap button with internal block reinforcement. All these fine details add up to a guitar you'll find hard to put down.

Get ready for big, bold tone
The jumbo body style, bigger then a dreadnought, is the king of flattop guitars. Dut to their massive size and resonating capabilities, jumbos produce a huge sound that is nevertheless balanced and focused - thanks, in part, to their relatively petite waist measurements. The Fender CJ-290S Jumbo is a great guitar for strumming, or for just about any musical style. If you don't need onboard electronics and want an axe that's naturally loud, Sweetwater's got your jumbo!

Scalloped X bracing for enhanced projection and balance
How a guitar's top is braced internally has a significant impact on the sound of the instrument. Fender used scalloped X bracing - normally found on more expensive guitars - for the CJ-290S. Scalloped X bracing gives the CJ-290S's solid spruce top extra rigidity for enhanced projection, and also improves the tonal balance.

  • Solid spruce top, laminated flame maple back and sides; quartersawn scalloped X bracing
  • 25.3" scale length; dual-action truss rod

Sweetwater ALWAYS exceeds my expectation in sales, customer service and knowledge on the gear being sold to me. Sweetwater is my #1 choice to buy equipment from the first time I ordered. I find of great value the fact that I don't feel like one more customer, rather THE customer.
