Silky sweet tone from a solid Sitka spruce top is combined with narrow-waisted comfort and sumptuous appointments in this superb reissue. Solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, bold herringbone top inlay, grained ivoroid binding and heel cap, HD zigzag back purfling, and a black ebony fretboard mark this one as a true luxury instrument. Traditional scalloped 1/4" bracing, solid mahogany neck, modified V neck shape, traditional open-geared Gotoh nickel tuners with butterbean knobs, and a Corian nut make it authentic and ready for years of serious use.
