1998 Beneteau Small Jumbo
In carefully well played condition, this Beneteau is crack free and has seen no repairs other than a cleanly executed bridge reglue and a refret in years past. It shows an assortment of dings, dents and playwear consistent with a guitar of its age; the finish is partially worn off the neck in spots and there are some light capo dents you’ll feel with your left hand, but there are no heavily worn areas or pickwear of any note. We’ve serviced this guitar here at Folkway for the better part of the last 25 years and know it well.
Padauk and Engelmann body with rosewood bindings, multi-layered wooden purflings, abalone rosette, and traditional X bracing. One-piece mahogany neck with ebony fretboard and headstock overlay. Ebony bridge and pins, bone nut and saddle, Fishman undersaddle pickup, Gotoh tuning machines.
25.4” scale, 1-3/4” nut, 2-5/32” string spacing at the saddle. Low C neck carve with a 1st fret depth of .783” and a 9th fret depth of .856”. Setup in-shop with light strings and a low action of 4.5 to 5.5 64ths.
With original hardshell case.
