Description

Here we've got the Preston Thompson team firing on all cylinders. This 2022 DSBA is a force to be reckoned with, stocked with premium Shipwreck Brazilian Rosewood and Adirondack Spruce, a light burst top, 42-style Abalone trim, and Ivoroid pickguard to stand out from the crowd. Their take on the classic diamonds & squares position markers is a modern, understated aesthetic--gorgeous--and pairs up nicely with the silvery headstock inlays.

if you have not heard about the Shipwreck Brazilian Rosewood, it's exactly what it sounds like. Old, straight-grained, beautiful Brazilian Rosewood that was salvaged from a shipwreck. This is rare and special wood improved by the sea water and by time. Preston Thompson Guitars no longer offers it on their guitars except for a few very special high-end models, so this is a great chance to own one. 
 
Rich, smooth, and velvety. The Preston Thompson team definitely builds a killer Bluegrass dread, and then there's one like this beauty. The top end has a round flavor that's sweet and easy on the ears, and pairs up so well with the warm bass.
