Here's a recent Wayne Henderson D-42 in premium Madagascar Rosewood and Adirondack Red Spruce. Built completely by Wayne Henderson including the finish work. This is a stunning dread with classic 42 style abalone trim on the top, rosette and fingerboard. The Madagascar Rosewood is exquisite with rich, dark color and the Adirondack top has an even wide grain and lovely silk. The voice is clear and poignant. The bass is loud but controlled and the trebles are articulate. A great Henderson for both the strummer or fingerpicker.

Player Reviews:
"Beautiful woods and all the Henderson tone! This is a sweet dread. The voice is strong and clear and I find it very articulate up the entire fingerboard. I like the way the guitar is strong but remain clear with good separation. Another great guitar from Wayne Henderson.

"Great fingerpicking or flatpicking guitar. Lots of midrange oomph and some serious mojo." - Al Petteway
