We can't get enough Kathy Wingert Guitars in the shop. Building her instruments one at a time with a true love of the craft she is creating some of the finest modern instruments available today. This Model E Grand Concert sports a dreamy set of Figured Koa wood and a a perfect German top. It's played in and alive, but very well kept in mint condition. The tone is all Wingert with a bit more mid punch from the Koa, lovely in every way.

Player Reviews:
"Now this is Koa, so beautiful and figured. This Wingert has a great midrange drive and lovely shimmer on top. It can be played hard or soft and either will reward you with that Wingert tone. Complete with a Calton and ready for it's next musical partner." - Paul Heumiller
"The koa gives this Wingert a "drier" sound with a bit more emphasis in the mids without being out of balance tonally. I would recommend this to any player who wants to expand their collection with a top end guitar that has a different, but very pleasing voice. The neck is perfect, as usual." - Al Petteway
"This is a very comfortable instrument to hold. It's light as a feather, and has one of the easiest playing necks I've ever held. It's a Wingert, so of course the woods are gorgeous and the build quality is top notch, and the sound? I found the trebles to be full and very pleasing, and perfectly balanced with the low end. An excellent fingerstyle instrument for sure, but equally at home playing lines, or rhythm guitar. " - Steven Dembroski
