Cedar/Cocobolo SJ
The first SJ from Drew was built with Cedar/Cocobolo combination, and it was by far the best Olson-esque SJ sound ever. Some Olson SJ owners have visited our showroom to do A/B comparison with their SJs. They were all amazed by Drew's work. Some folks actually said this particular SJ is an Olson replica. I think this one is a T Drew Heinonen SJ. Drew really well grasped his master's tone and mixed with his own stuff in a subtle way.
