The LSV model is a lovingly crafted replica of the specific HD28 (serial #58957) owned by the late, legendary Clarence White in the '60s and later by bluegrass master Tony Rice. Suffering from scars caused by hard picking and cigarette embers, the original soundhole was enlarged to 4-5/16". A further modification entailed replacing the original fingerboard with a longer, bound Gretsch without position markers. This re-creation is crafted with a solid Sitka top with aging toner, solid Indian rosewood back and sides, a modified V mahogany neck, fine herringbone top inlay, and chrome Gotoh tuners with butterbean knobs. Limited lifetime warranty. Includes Geib-style case.
