The limited edition Ball Family Reserve JP15 features a black limba body with a buckeye burl top, offering a unique and striking aesthetic.

The guitar includes a thin and fast roasted figured maple neck with a hand-rubbed oil and wax finish and an ebony fretboard, delivering a smooth playing experience with enhanced stability and brightness. Equipped with custom DiMarzio Illuminator pickups, a piezo bridge system for convincing acoustic tones, and an onboard 20dB gain boost, the JP15 offers versatile output options, including mono or stereo with the ability to route the piezo to a separate signal chain.
