Just completed in the Fall of 2019, this was a custom build for a customer that wanted one “just like #242”, which was sold before he could purchase it. And so it is, another V style oval hole, Englemenn top, X braced and Red Maple back and sides. It also features:
- inlaid violin purflings around perimeter of top and back
- Golden Age “Relic” tuners in vintage nickel finish
- 1 3/16″ width ebony nut
- Shop made ebony adjustable bridge/saddle
- Adjustable truss rod and 3 piece laminate neck construction
- Soft “V” neck profile
- 10″ Radiused, “clean” fingerboard with side markers
- Semi-gloss nitro lacquer finish
- Hardshell case
- Full lifetime warranty
