Peerless Jazz City

Peerless builds quality Instruments for discerning guitarists

Peerless is Korea's premiere guitar manufacturer and has been producing high quality jazz guitars since the 70s. Over the years they've built thousands of guitars for Gretsch, Gibson, Fender, Epiphone, and many others. Now a prestigious brand in their own right, Peerless offers instruments that rival the sound and playability of much costlier boutique makers at a fraction of the price.

The Jazz City is meticulously crafted from high grade materials

The Jazz City has a laminate spruce top, laminate maple back and sides, and a maple neck. It features a rosewood fingerboard, a rosewood cello style tailpiece, and a gorgeous honeyburst finish. Hardware includes a set of Grover Imperial tuners and a built-in humbucker. The overall style of the instrument is reminiscent of the more ornate designs of the legendary John D'Angelico and his protege Jimmy D'Aquisto. Embellishments include stunning block fingerboard inlays of mother of pearl and abalone, D'Aquisto style headtsock logo, and beautiful abalone body binding.

Versatile yet practical, the Jazz City is perfect for the working musician

The Jazz City is designed to produce a warm, fat jazz tone at high volumes. The laminate body is exceptionally feedback resistant and the built-in humbucker sounds woody and clear. The 17" body sits effortlessly in your lap while the 1 11/16th nut makes even the most cumbersome chord shapes feel effortless. This guitar comes setup with D'Addario 12 gauge flatwounds and fairly low, 2mm action. However, this instrument performs well with many types of setups, including traditional bebop (14 gauge flatwounds and very low action) and swing (higher action) setups.

Whether it's blazing bebop lines, fingerstyle ballads, or searing blues leads, this instrument can do it all! Come and experience the easy playability and tonal beauty of this highly versatile model yourself...

Peerless Jazz City

I just unboxed my Peerless Jazz City archtop and I love it! Plays awesome. Looks awesome and feels awesome in my hands. Anyone looking for a cheaper in price archtop that is not cheaper in quality...I highly recommend the Jazz City from Peerless. I cannot say enough about this guitar...but I will leave with this...it has become my best non-talking friend. Dave
