JRP Guitars

Introduction

Japanese Red Pine

In this special series, the body is made out of Japanese red pine wood, particularly, from red pine trees from Matsumoto city that have been partially eaten out by pine weevils and had to be cut down to prevent potential accidents.

From the front of the body all the way to the sides and the back you can see various leftover markings due to the knots and holes made by the pine weevils before the tree was cut down. During the making of a regular guitar, every single spot would be sanded down and polished to the point were no visual imperfections could be seen, but with our JRP series, we intend to embrace the wood’s characteristics and features and make them shine as a reminder of their origins and what they represent.

Parrot Model

For the body we decided to take our classic Bacchus branded Parrot and create a red pine wood version of it, with aIndigo coat of paint that we felt gave a very good aesthetic to the instrument.

※Prodution of this model was limited to 20 units.

※Please keep in mind that due to the nature of this product the patterns and details of the wood will vary from the pictures.
