The AR31S/JCET-AM is a serious instrument for the player who wants a big, resonant sound and a comfortable, modern feel. Alexandr Misko clearly had a vision for this jumbo – the fanned frets and string drops are smart touches, and the Fishman pickup is a major selling point for stage work. It’s a fantastic choice for singer-songwriters and players who need a powerful acoustic voice with reliable amplification.

Frequently Asked Questions
The fanned frets improve intonation, especially across the extended scale, and require a slightly different approach to bending but generally offer excellent tuning stability.
The string drops are subtle when played acoustically, primarily intended to influence the amplified tone and reduce string tension on the lower strings.
Pau Ferro provides a tighter low-end and a more articulate midrange compared to mahogany, adding clarity and complexity to the tone while retaining warmth.
