Jon Case has been a successful Design Director for over 20 years. He has been a guitarist longer. His fascination with art and music led him to build his own guitars and use them in the many bands he has played with over the years.

Jon's years of experience and passion are embodied in his unique design of the Crockett JC1 Arch-top guitar. The asymmetric shape gives the size and presence of a full size jazz guitar but with the comfort and balance of a more compact model. Superior access to the top frets is achieved by the offset shape and a greater bass string length gives more tension, thus alleviating the need for extra heavy gauges at the bottom. Positioning of the machine heads allows for a straighter string pull aiding tuning stability, while the 'wave' theme running throughout creates a sense of harmony to the overall design.
