Fernando Jaen · 2026
Always a pleasure to have a Jaen guitar. This time, a Siracusa in 16”. While the previous handful were in matte oil finishes, this one is in gloss nitro. The 16” keeps things comfortable, while still delivering the big, acoustic Siracusa sound.

New; This is a new guitar, and has never been owned. There is always the possibility of very slight handling wear from photography and demos.
Additional Thoughts
Fernando Jaen makes contemporary arch tops in both styling, and sound. I will always remember him telling me that his guitars as designed to be “100% acoustic and 100% electric,” meaning that equal consideration was made to make both aspects live harmoniously together in the same instrument. Indeed, the acoustic sound creates a strong musical foundation, with the custom electronics adding a wide swath of versatility in amplified situations. I received a batch of two 16” this time, and one was sold before I made a listing for it. If the 17” size felt intimidating, this 16” is a great option to get that Jaen sound in a more comfortable form.
