Just completed in April 2020, a match with A-2 #260, this is a “basic” A-5, built by Josh. Tonally, this one growls, with a big bluegrass pop and chop, but balanced, responsive, open and resonant with surprising volume. It features:
- Red maple figured sides and back
- x-braced Englemenn spruce top
- tortoise shell binding top and tone hole
- Golden Age “Relic” tuners in vintage nickel finish w/ matching tailpiece and Pomeroy “lady logo” cast in silver
- 1 1/8″ width bone nut
- figured maple headplate with ebony side stripe
- Shop made ebony adjustable bridge/saddle
- Adjustable truss rod and 3 piece laminate neck construction
- Soft “V” neck profile is unfinished and waxed ( “speed neck”)
- 10″ Radiused fingerboard with MOP dots and side markers
- oil varnish finish, rubbed out to a gloss sheen
- Hardshell case
- Full lifetime warranty
