Ample Sound has released the Super Jumbo, recorded with a Gibson SJ-200 Vintage (Custom Shop) acoustic guitar. The SJ series are one of Gibson's high end acoustic guitars with biggest body, in which the Vintage Custom Shop edition is the top notch instrument.
The AGSJ, with the Super Jumbo body, has fuller and more rich sound compared to Ample Sound's previous AGM(D shape) and AGT(A shape) acoustic models.
Ample Sound recorded the guitar with 4 mics (2 mics for previous AGM and AGT products), which is able to generate various sound modes such as Body + AB, Neck + AB, MS and Mono. Among those the Neck + AB mode has very mellow note starts, which is suitable for creating ambient music.

Pretty decent bit of virtual strumming in the above demo, I find.
