Default Emerald X30 Woody Custom Shop Select Series Thermal Oak Gotoh 510 LR Baggs Hiscox Cas

Like new- Original owner.
As described by Emerald Guitars:

The X30 changes everything you thought you knew about jumbo guitars — great ergonomics, balanced tone, and high fret access. If you want a big sound, you need a big guitar. The common reaction when people strum an X30 for the first time is “WOW.” The bass response is such that you feel it as much as you hear it. Couple this with the amazing ergonomics of the sculpted carbon fibre body and you have the perfect recipe for a very special jumbo. The X30 has the big sound you expect from a jumbo guitar, but the innovative ergonomic design features allow for the X30 to be the most comfortable jumbo guitar you will ever play.

This X30 is part of the monthly Emerald Custom Shop Select Series — a collection of instruments hand-selected by Alistair Hay. It features a warm, textured Thermal Oak (Bog Oak) wood veneer with black carbon back and sides.

The X30 Select Series has full gloss finish on all surfaces, black Gotoh 510 tuners, and an LR Baggs Element Active System™ – VTC pick-up, and comes with a Hiscox Custom Pro-GJ hard case.”


25.5” Scale Length
1 ¾” Nut Width
16” Fretboard Radius

Andy, I can attest to the X30's exceptional tone. Plus all the volume you could ask for in a manageable-sized guitar. Emerald did a fantastic job with the ergonomics of this model.
