Thin, light, and exquisite, the City LimitsĀ® Jazz commands attention. Built in limited numbers with a fully-hollow Honduran mahogany body, carved European spruce top, and modern stylings, the CL Jazz is a lightweight and ultra-responsive jazz guitar that delivers detailed tone and rich harmonic complexity. Sleek body contours combined with multiple black/white purflings, elegant bound S-holes, and choice of either our signature Broken Glass or Parallelogram inlays make the CL Jazz one of our most elaborately appointed instruments.
