Two years to develop, we are thrilled to let you know about the new Martin Taylor JOYA.
A stylish carved, hand graduated archtop that can provide all the characteristics demanded upon it by a world class guitar player, this compact beauty comes in at 375mm (15") x 76mm (3"). The JOYA is produced with a premium carved, 40mm, solid select spruce sound-board and carved solid flame maple back & sides. Fitted with a flame maple neck the fingerboard, finger-rest, floating bridge & tailpiece are all in Indian ebony.
Completely hand wired in shielded, steel braided cable for increased performance and stability.
Fitted with a floating, Slimbucker Kent Armstrong humbucker with birdseye maple cover compliments
the JOYA perfectly. This contemporary looking archtop produces wonderful warm, crisp tones and is
