@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
