Description
Experience the perfect fusion of vintage soul and modern value with the PJ-3 electric guitar.

Crafted with a lightweight Paulownia body finished in nitrocellulose lacquer, the PJ-3 breathes and ages gracefully, developing unique character over time. Its satin roasted maple neck with a rosewood fretboard feels comfortable from the very first chord, enhanced by 22 jumbo stainless steel frets for smooth playability and long-lasting durability.
