Player Reviews:
"Kathy Wingert's most popular model with her favorite woods, what more can we ask for. Maybe superb tone, but that's here as well. This one is rich, full and deeply resonant as all Wingert guitars are. What makes Wingert guitars unique is the full, woodwind-like, trebles that sing out like a sweet voice and round, warm basses that support with ultimate clarity and balance. A true fingerstyle instrument for the discerning player." - Paul Heumiller
"Kathy's guitars are just works of art. They are beautiful to look at and comfortable to play. The tone is nicely balanced across all octaves making it perfect for fingerstyle players." - Al Petteway
"This is such an elegant guitar. Like all of Kathy's work, this is one is a real joy to play. A very fine fingerstyle guitar." - Steven Dembroski
