2007 Henderson Dreadnought - Shaded Top Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar

SOLD

We are delighted to have happened upon another amazing instrument from Wayne Henderson. This time we have a guitar he modeled after his very own 1937 Martin Shaded top D-28. It is crafted from stunning Brazilian Rosewood and Appalachian Spruce. According to Wayne the bridge is from a piece of very old ebony from an old upright Bass fingerboard. The shaded top is breathtaking with rich golden and brown hues, very dark and smokey. The sound is huge, this one has a very clear and very strong voice. Chords ring out with a grand boom-chuck and single notes fire as if from a pistol. Find out what all the buzz is about.

Player Reviews:

"What a surprise to find this gem by Wayne Henderson. Wayne crafted this one in the likeness of his treasured 1937 Martin Shaded top and boy did he succeed. This guitar is alive, so responsive and energetic. Bass notes are big and bad and the trebles sing out just in front. Everything is clear and articulate and everything is powerful. Well done Wayne!" - Paul Heumiller
