1969 Knight Guitars Jumbo

This 1969 Knight Jumbo Acoustic is a wonderful example of British luthiery from one of the country's most respected independent guitar builders. Hand built during the formative years of Knight Guitars, it pairs a solid spruce top with beautifully figured koa back and sides, delivering a rich, balanced voice with excellent projection. Complete with its original period sixties case, this vintage acoustic offers both outstanding playability and genuine collector appeal.

Founded by master luthier Dick Knight and Gordon Wells in Surrey during the late 1960s, Knight Guitars quickly earned a reputation for producing exceptional handcrafted instruments. Knight's meticulous craftsmanship attracted the attention of leading musicians of the era, with artists including David Gilmour and Pete Townshend seeking out his work. Today, original Knight guitars remain highly regarded for their quality, rarity, and distinctive British character.
