RW2332-422 Overview – Specifications & Features
Style 2 Weissenborn Guitar · AA Grade Tasmanian Blackwood
The piece de resistance of the 2023 Herringbone Series. This strictly limited batch of just three Weissenborn guitars takes its cues from the marquetry and pearl inlay that adorned pre-WW2 guitars, yet the end result is a decidedly modern, balanced Weissenborn guitar. No. 422 features an absolutely stunning Ziricote fretboard, intricately bordered by Maple, and featuring delicate art deco inspired hexagonal inlay.
– Richard Wilson
Inclusions
Hardshell case and free international shipping.
Lifetime warranty.
