@Jackson C:  Other than the obvious diference in size of the Body.  A jumbo acoustic guitar will tend to produce deeper tones than the non-jumbo acoustic guitars.  Wood choice is imperative to produce awesome sound though more so than size and shape. 

I recomend that you concentrate more on finding a guitar that is comfortable for you to play and that sounds great.

Good Luck!

A jumbo with the right tone woods can put you in dreamville with it rich tone.  For some reason I've always thought the  Hummingbird by Gibson was a jumbo guitar because of it rich tone
