What are your thoughts comparing a jumbo body style to a dreadnought. I know that jumbo's tend to be good for rhythm playing, but are they also well suited to playing leads and flatpicking? The only jumbos I've been able to spend much time with are the Gibson SJ guitars, but I'm more a fan of the Larrivee, Breedlove, and Taylor sound. The Gibsons I've played tend to be very bass heavy without much top end sparkle, but this might have also been due to dead strings. I've played quite a few dreadnoughts and I like them, but I've been curious how a jumbo from the same company would compare. Thanks for your thoughts.
