Another wonderful SJ from Brian Applegate. This guitar features stunning appointments including a Madagascar Rosewood back with an Adirondack Spruce top for crisp, robust tones with rich, full bass. There is also a Florentine Cutaway and an Olson style 5 piece neck equipped with Gotoh 510 tuners. Lastly there is a subtle wooden vine inlay on the fingerboard. Truly a wonderful instrument for the most discerning player.

Player Reviews:
"This is a stunning Applegate. I really like the wood combination of Madagascar and Adirondack, it's powerful and clear. Notes are articulate and sustain is wonderful. This one looks like a new guitar as well." - Paul Heumiller
"Brian makes great guitars. His tone is bright and focused with lots of punch in the midrange frequencies, ideal for complicated fingerstyle arrangements where every note must be heard clearly." - Al Petteway
