Key Features
The Hartwood Sonata-FX Jumbo Electro-Acoustic Guitar offers a comprehensive all-in-one solution to practice, performance, and writing. Comprised of a premium selection of tonewoods, the Sonata-FX Jumbo includes a solid sitka spruce top, flamed maple sides, as well as a maple neck, all of which complement one another, guaranteeing a full-frequency, responsive playing experience. Built to last, the guitar features scrolled X-shape Engleman spruce bracing, allowing it to withstand the inevitable bumps and knocks that come with continued use, providing great projection, as well as a solid, consistent tone you can rely on.
Easy to play, the Sonata-FX Jumbo offers a thin C-shaped neck with master graded frets. Exclusive to the Sonata series, the additional sound holes situated in the armrest contour offer fantastic projection of the internal speaker, as well as the guitar's natural tone when not in use. Suitable for a broad range of musical styles, the Sonata's FX system serves as an acoustic preamp, FX module and internal loudspeaker. This allows you to perform unplugged, incorporating high-quality processing such as reverb, delay, chorus - all without an amplifier or pedal board in sight.
When connected to an amplifier you'll be able to take advantage of the processing as well as the ability to adjust the volume and EQ. The preamp's versatility unlocks a seemingly infinite number of tonal possibilities, which can easily be adjusted on-the-fly to suit your needs. Perfect pitch is guaranteed via the inclusion of 18:1 plating iron tuners and a bone nut, whilst the hardware's gun-metal colour offers a stylish contrast to the natural finish. For the finest playing experience the Sonata-FX Jumbo comes equipped with D'addario EXP 16 strings.
Please Note: Please note that both battery and charger are included.

At the heart of Hartwood Sonata-FX Jumbo sits a unique preamp system. Incredibly versatile, the system simultaneously acts as an acoustic preamp, FX module, and internal loudspeaker. Unlike other guitars of this style, Hartwood’s team of product specialists opted to defer from the traditional method of gluing a vibration piezo to the body top in order to obtain a signal. Instead, the innovative patented design sees a microphone installed into the body chamber which is then routed to a small twin speaker. Not only does this method amplify and enhance your tone, it minimises the risk of unwanted resonances for a clear sound when practicing and performing.
Achieve studio-quality tones unplugged with the onboard chorus/delay/reverb processing. Based across two controls, you’ll be free to determine the perfect amount of depth for your tone by increasing “reverb” which can then be enhanced with a touch of either chorus, or delay. Placing these effects on one knob makes it effortless to alternate between sounds mid performance. This proves useful for buskers who desire a compact, streamlined set-up when on-the-go, as well as inspiring singer/songwriters to break through writer’s block.
Although modern in its design, the Sonata series keeps Hartwood’s traditionalist values close to heart with the inclusion of an input jack, allowing you to seamlessly integrate an amplifier, or additional pedals into your set-up. Not only can all onboard processing be incorporated into your sound, you can also use the volume knob to determine the exact level that the guitar hits your amplifier and pedals. When connected to an amplifier, utilise the integrated 2-band EQ that offers two “musical” shelves to add “body” and “sheen” to your tone. Further tonal adjustments are available by altering the flick switches through the sound hole.
The Hartwood Sonata-FX Jumbo Electro-Acoustic Guitar sports a solid sitka spruce top. Renowned for their response, solid tonewoods react to every minute detail of your playing, offering maximum expression that will only improve with age. The solid sitka delivers exceptional warmth, an articulate midrange alongside silky highs, all whilst offering a broad dynamic range with impressive sustain. This complements the richness and punch of the flamed maple sides and maple neck. The Scrolled X-Shape Engleman Spruce bracing increases the Sonata-FX’s durability and projection, making it suitable for a broad range of musical styles.
The left hand side of the Sonata-FX’s Jumbo body includes an armrest contour. Not only does this provide great comfort when performing, the sound holes embedded into the contour offer an improved playing experience by providing additional projection for both you and your audience. Maintain excellent tuning stability with the 18:1 Ratio Plating Iron tuners. When paired with the bone nut and high density composite wood bridge, they ensure you spend less time tweaking pitch and more time performing. Whether playing chords, or fingerpicking lead lines, a slim C-shaped neck profile with grade fret treatment allows you to progress up and down the fretboard with ease. All hardware comes complete in a gun-black finish that provides the perfect contrast to the natural wood and signature Hartwood leaf fretboard inlay.
Hartwood's carefully developed range of electric and acoustic instruments offers exceptional quality and sound. Honing in on the finest components, tonewoods, and construction techniques, each Hartwood model has been designed to evolve with you and your music. With both classic and contemporary designs, Hartwood guitars are suitable for all musicians, no matter your style.
