The SD (Slope-shouldered Dreadnaught) is a nod to the jumbo steel strings of the 1930s and 1940s. This guitar offers the punch of a bigger instrument with impressive sustain. It has a midrange growl and cut that lends itself to flatpicking. It's a loud instrument meant to be driven with high overtones that chime and still provide a great bass response.
