Jon Gomm’s signature Ibanez is a real player's instrument – the Thermo Sitka top gives it a uniquely mature voice, and the Fishman electronics are top-notch for stage work. The wider neck is definitely a design choice; it's brilliant for complex fingerstyle, but not for everyone. This is ideal for the advanced acoustic player looking for a versatile, amplified performance tool.

Frequently Asked Questions
Thermo Sitka offers a faster, more consistent aging process, but it lacks some of the nuanced complexity found in decades-old traditional spruce – it's still excellent, just different.
It's wider than most acoustics, but the comfortable neck profile helps. It’s best to try it in person if you’re unsure, as it’s designed for complex fingerstyle patterns.
The Rare Earth mic is renowned for its excellent feedback rejection, especially when blended with the PowerTap pickup – it’s a very stage-friendly system.
