A Modern Resonator in the Spirit of "Spider" Guitars

The JR-850E follows the tradition of resonator guitars equipped with a "spider" system, appreciated for its direct response, definition, and very expressive nature when played fingerstyle or with a pick. With its flamed maple construction and glossy finish, it offers a more contemporary aesthetic while retaining the sonic DNA of instruments designed to naturally "cut through."

For Which Guitarists and Styles?

This guitar is particularly aimed at intermediate to advanced musicians seeking a marked sonic signature and true personality both acoustically and plugged in. It is well suited for blues, slide, bluegrass, and percussive rhythmic accompaniments, while remaining relevant for more original textures in pop/rock whenever one wants to move beyond the tones of a standard acoustic.

Sound

The combination of flamed maple (top, back, sides) and the spider cone resonator emphasizes a clear attack, a well-present high register, and very readable articulation, particularly useful for slide playing and fast runs. The mahogany neck provides a warmer and more balanced foundation, while the ebony fingerboard enhances precision and the feeling of control. The single coil pickup, combined with volume and tone controls, allows adapting the amplified sound while maintaining a clear grain that responds well to playing nuances.
