Wow, this is a great sounding guitar!
This is definitely in the 'it's a cannon" terminology we like to use, whenever we get in an acoustic guitar that just has a real growl to it.
I wouldn't say this is a guitar specifically designed for fingerpicking, although it certiainly does sound nice when you do. Where this guitar excels is powerful strumming. The Adriondack sprice top gives back everything you put in and you can never overload it. Your picking hand becomes the volume control with this beauty!
Built as part of a run of guitars for "Wildwood Guitars" in USA
"Since the mid 1930's, the Gibson Advanced Jumbo, with its unique combination of tone woods, long scale neck, and wider X-bracing, has been set a new standard in the realm of acoustic guitars. The new Wildwood 12-Fret AJ takes this concept to a whole new dimension. With all of the warmth and drive of the original AJ, the 12-fret version adds the concept of shifting the bridge to the top's "sweet spot," thus allowing for superior top movement, midrange push, and tonal response. With the historic look and feel of the original AJ, the added dynamic of a 12 fret neck to body joint, and shipped stage ready with an L.R. Baggs Lyric pick up system, the Gibson Wildwood 12-Fret Advanced Jumbo is an exceptional package that will not only deliver in spades, but inspire for decades to come."
